Assuming my understanding that the %EPS share growth from Inbev over the past few years is performance growth, that is to say, organic, and not just added profit form acquisitions, (it's along time since I have considered such a question and I am not about to go back over the accounts for the past five years, to find out) I'd say that the more companies Inbev can buy the better as they are definitely very shrewd operators. From a patriotic point of view if I was a shareholder of AB, I wouldn't sell, I would insist on management performing as Inbev, or close t it, and take a risk on that. Some things money can't buy, and therefore shouldn't be sold, unless they have to be, and iconic brands are one of them, though for most, to the detriment of our civilisation, money means everything today.
