Dell can buy back VMWare shares
 

Tinbox shifter Michael Dell said he could write a $3 billion cheque to buy back VMWare tracking stock to help finance its EMC acquisition.

This is important as it shows that Dell is working out ways to jack-up VMware’s value. The plans to issue a tracking stock have weighed on VMware’s common shares, which have lost a quarter of their value since the acquisition of EMC was announced in October.

Under the deal, EMC shareholders will receive 0.111 VMware tracking share for each EMC share, a move intended to give investors exposure to VMware, which is growing faster than EMC.
