Highlights
Given the pending merger between the two companies, currently investors are effectively buying Comcast (CMCSA) at around $50 per share through shares of TWC. The presenter likes the risk-reward set-up, believing that Comcast has downside potential to perhaps $45 per share at this level, with potential upside of $75 through the end of 2015. He regards the trade as a solid opportunity given concerns over the likelihood of the deal closing and the potential for mounting regulation.
