Amcor Plc appears to be at the center of various strategic moves and market activities. They've been given a consensus rating of 'Moderate Buy' by brokerages while observing a large increase in short interest. This increase indicates optimism about the future as short interest generally increases when investors believe a stock's price will rise soon. Institutional investors also favor it significantly, owning a significant 63 to 64% percent of the company. They announced a merger with Berry Global Group, thereby establishing a packaging powerhouse. Ancora projects a 70% surge in the Amcor-Berry merger, with a promising $4.5B EBITDA potential. Despite earnings missing analyst estimates, Amcor's management has managed a return on equity of 17%, considered satisfactory. Amcor is also aiming to accelerate growth with this merger agreement and is expected to pay a larger dividend than the previous year, reinforcing its reputation as a top dividend aristocrat stock. However, questions about the stock being undervalued and the CEO's compensation have arisen in light of these developments.
