As we enter Monday pre-market session, several companies are making headlines with significant announcements and strategic moves.

$VVI Viad Corp GES Acquisition by Truelink Capital
Viad Corp's subsidiary, GES, a leading provider in the global exhibition and events industry, has announced its acquisition by Truelink Capital. This transaction, aimed at supporting accelerated growth, could potentially reshape GES's market position. Investors will be watching closely to see how this deal impacts Viad Corp's overall business strategy and financial outlook.

$IBM AI Model Updates and Mainframe Innovation
IBM is making waves in the AI sector with the unveiling of new versions of its AI models, Granite 3, targeted at businesses. This move reinforces IBM's commitment to staying competitive in the rapidly evolving AI landscape. Additionally, IBM's involvement in the Open Mainframe Project's new initiatives, Zorse and zopen community, demonstrates the company's continued focus on mainframe technology innovation. These developments could potentially boost IBM's appeal to enterprise clients and impact its stock performance.

$AUB Acquisition and Public Offering
Atlantic Union Bankshares is making strategic moves with the announcement of its acquisition of Sandy Spring Bancorp in an all-stock transaction valued at approximately $1.6 billion. This acquisition could significantly expand Atlantic Union's market presence. Furthermore, the company has priced a public offering of 9.859 million shares at $35.50 per share, aiming to raise about $350 million. These actions demonstrate Atlantic Union's aggressive growth strategy and could impact its stock valuation in the coming days.

$MDLZ Stake Sale in JDE Peets
Mondelez International is selling its 86 million shares in JDE Peets N.V., a beverage company, to JAB Holding Company for €25.10 per share. This move allows Mondelez to potentially refocus its resources on core business areas. Investors will be keen to see how this divestment affects Mondelez's balance sheet and future strategic direction.

$MCD Political Spotlight and Menu Strategy
McDonald's is in the news for unconventional reasons as former President Donald Trump made an appearance at one of its drive-thrus, sparking political discussions. On the business front, the company's $5 meal deals are under scrutiny as analysts debate their effectiveness in attracting discerning customers. These events, while different in nature, both have the potential to impact McDonald's brand perception and, consequently, its stock performance.

As the market opens, these companies are likely to see increased trading activity. Investors should keep an eye on how these developments unfold and their potential impact on short-term stock movements and long-term company strategies.
