Baron Funds Comments on Liberty Media Corp.

Liberty Media Corp. (LBTYA, Financial), a holding company for interests in media and communications companies, rose 18.4% in the quarter. Liberty moved to gain operational control of its primary holding, Sirius XM Radio. This pushed up that stock on the prospect that Liberty would pursue a shareholderfriendly agenda of significant share repurchases, much like it has done with its own capital structure. Liberty stock rose in sympathy to the rise in Sirius.
