Abstract
Thanks to event-studies, it is possible to measure value creation for firms implied in a takeover as well as their competitors. Horizontal operations create more value than others. However, it is difficult to determine the origin of the gain: the increase in the share value may have different sources. In some cases, the market seems to anticipate an improvement in productive efficiency, in others an increase in market power.
