| matthew9 | why IV is correct ? |
| Swetha | I guess it's because any valuation model should take into account minority/majority interest to arrive at the correct intrinsic value. |
| thekapila | IV is correct to value the intrinsic value of stock for majority stockholder. As he has to pay premium to get control over company which is the price for that power. |
| jmcarr02 | But a major shareholder also has market impact when he transacts his shares which hinders his capacity to get the best price for his shares. This factor should also be considered and it probably has a counter-effect on his control premium. |
| MonkeySee | Generally if you have ownership control barring an emergency need for cash, liquidity of your asset is not the prime concern. Therefore, hinderance of his liquidity is more then compensated by his control premium. Finally if and when he decides to sell, he is also selling the onwership premium on top of the value of the stake. |
| davidt87 | IV is just retarded |
