Barron’s: Time Warner’s shares are up 13 percent so far this year, after a 24 percent decline last year, in part because “Batman v Superman” is a box-office success. Profits across its cable-TV businesses are swelling, too. Time Warner doesn’t have a controlling shareholder, which subjects it to frequent takeover speculation. “We’ve had eight years of excellent growth,” said CEO Jeff Bewkes. “The reason we haven’t been interested in a deal is we’re outperforming.”
