One could look at it another way... the fact that they think that this could even be possible and are willing to go through the motions to reach the agreement speaks volumes about what these giant companies think of the "regulators".
- bhahn 10y agoIt's not that simple. Announcing a merger doesn't necessarily a high chance of success.
