NextDC's share price has seen a significant rise of 39% following a share raid by Goodman Group and Digital Realty. The company's board has engaged investment bankers to prepare for a potential takeover battle. A capex review is due by the AGM, as the Victorian caretaker period begins. UBS has warned of a share price bloodbath, while other sources suggest shares may become more affordable after 21 December. NextDC has acknowledged the share raid and plans to react to the $9.50 offer.
