Harman To Acquire B&W, Denon, Polk And Marantz From Masimo In $350 Million Deal

just saw the above announcement--of particular note is that masimo paid over a billion for the same brands just a few years ago. not sure whether harman will add any value--they've neither hurt nor helped revel or arcam--or what this move indicates about the consumer audio market generally, but this doesn't bode well for the future.

To repeat...  Harman has done a great job with Roon.

If there is not profit to be made, why would any company continue?  Is mylogic willing to personally pay to keep a losing business alive?  

Businesses are acquired usually because the price is low due to an ineffective business strategy or mis-management.  Either way they are losers and not likely to survive on their own.

Healthy companies with good strategy and management serve their employees and customers well. An undeniable lesson we've learned from Warren Buffett.
