$HHC Buy The Dip And Play The Fibonacci Retracement$HHC dropped like a rock on announcing some restructuring changes. We think this a good dip buying opportunity on a market over-reaction. Here's the news:
The Howard Hughes Corp. (NYSE:HHC) following its announcement that it's replacing its CEO and embarking on a transformation plan.
That follows a "thorough" strategic review, the company says.
It's named Paul Layne (currently president of the company's Central Region) the new chief executive, effective immediately. David Weinreb and Grant Herlitz are stepping down from the company, and Layne will replace Weinreb on the board.
The new transformation plan has three pillars, the company says: a $45M-$50M annual reduction in overhead; selling about $2B in noncore assets; and accelerated growth in core MPC assets.
Chief Financial Officer David O'Reilly will have an enhanced role working with Layne on executing the new plan.
Remember, hedge fund manager Bill Ackman is Chairman of the Board and a major shareholder. He is well-known for being committed to his deals.
