Not so fast. On 1 December 2010 (around when Google bid $6 billion for Groupon) the 3-year Treasury traded at 0.84% - thus $6 billion in December 2010 was worth no less than $6.2 billion today. If you put $6 billion into the Russell 3000 index on 1 December 2010, on the other hand, it would be worth $8.7 billion (14% more) today. Given that Groupon is a high-beta mid-cap stock, I would expect this figure to be closer to a fair baseline than the prior one. |
