PARIS, January 17 (Reuters) – The stocks to follow on Monday on the Paris Stock Exchange and in Europe:
*GLAXOSMITHKLINE GSK.L, UNILEVER ULVR.L. The British pharmaceutical group on Saturday rejected a 50 billion pound (60 billion euro) offer from Unilever on its consumer branch because it “fundamentally undervalues” the activity which it still intends to split from the rest of the group.
Such an operation, which would be the biggest on a global scale since the start of the pandemic, would transform Unilever into a giant in beauty and skincare products, directly attacking leaders like Estee Lauder and L’Oréal. nL8N2TV0BW
