As with all mergers, it depends on to whom / for what.
For AOL shareholders, by 2002, between the merger and the dotcom bubble bursting, 2002$200 B (so about 2021$5.5 T?) had been wiped from AOL's market cap.
So that was, presumably, not good.
- HWR_14 5y agoWhat a weird way of looking at it. First, how did you turn 2002's $200B into 2021's $5.5T? But my point was if it wasn't for the merger, the AOL stockholders would have lost far more in the dotcom bubble bursting. Pointing out they lost a lot in the combined events isn't really a counterargument.
