I am just dreaming - any big boys - Apple/Google/Amazon talking to them to acquire?
- edgeform 5y agoThe end goal of every company doesn't have to be "get acquired by a major tech company".
- solarkraft 5y agoAren’t they a bit big for that now?
- atatatat 5y agoThat doesn't matter anymore, it seems. See: Disney portfolio
- yashap 5y agoI don’t think they’ve ever made a $95 billion acquisition. Marvel, Lucasfilm, Pixar, each ~$4-7 billion. I believe Fox was their biggest acquisition by far, and it was decently close to Stripe, at $71 billion. But yeah, a $95 billion acquisition would be huge, and very rare.
- judge2020 5y agoAlthough, I wouldn’t be surprised if Apple petitioned to buy Disney (market cap ~320B, Apple Cash on hand ~200B)
- ksec 5y agoI mean why would they? Especially when Apple has Apple Pay. Which is sort of a competitor.
- nicoburns 5y agoIsn't that a worst-case scenario? The last thing we want is mire consolidation in the tech industry.
