"Looking at ITV, shares moving in very much the opposite direction after announcing that it's in talks with the owner of Sky Comcast about the sale of its media and entertainment arm. >> Indeed, shares soaring on the back of this. They jumped about 20% this morning. If this deal goes through, it would leave ITV with their studios unit, which produces Britain's Got Talent, Love Island, and all those guilty pleasures. This could be a real shakeup in the broadcasting space, creating a broadcasting giant."

The commentary on ITV focuses on its recent talks with Sky Comcast, which have spurred a significant share price jump. The potential deal, seen as a shakeup in the broadcasting landscape, adds an element of upside to the stock as it positions itself post-divestiture.
