Tencent buys 29% stake in Dune and Conan gaming company Funcom
The initial rally in OSL:FUNCOM share after news broke that Tencent bought the largest position in the Oslo based gaming company was called off after primary insider Fredrik Malmberg sold a large amount of shares the same day.
This is giving the market a chance of buying Funcom stock with a healthy discount compared to the share price payed by Tencent.
Funcom have completed a full turnaround of the of the company since the release of survival game Conan Exiles, and is now debt free.
This makes the company a very interesting investment opportunity and well positioned on creating great new games based on the Dune franchise.
