Dell plans to storm back to stock markets this month

Dell Technologies won a shareholder vote to return to public markets, putting founder Michael Dell on the winning side of a transformative transaction that polarised investors for the second time in five years.

The world’s largest private technology company secured more than 61% of its tracking stock DVMT’s unaffiliated shareholders. Of those who cast a ballot, 89% voted in favour. DVMT acts as a proxy for Dell’s stake in software maker VMware. Between Dell and its EMC, it employs around 3,000 people in Cork and 2,000 staff in Limerick and Dublin.
