Here we go!

The UK antitrust regulator CMA has approved the revised deal for the acquisition of game developer $ATVI by $MSFT.

How do you feel about this acquisition, which has been dragging on for over a year. I haven't found a report anywhere on how it will work out with shareholders, does anyone have any information? @lukasandel and I discussed this in a recent post.

Do you own shares of $ATVI or $MSFT?

It's been dragging on for a really long time and it's great that it's getting finished. I don't own shares of either company, but if $MSFT share price gets below $300, I'd probably buy already.

MW

I'd buy under $300, too. Microsoft to me is a very high quality company.

MSTF will buy all the shares, so ATVI will be delisted. Personally, I've already sold it and my money can work elsewhere for now, because I don't know when it will actually sell.

As I wrote on another comment, thanks for the info. This is the first time I've experienced this situation since I've been in the market so I wasn't aware of the next steps. I'll also sell it today to let them work and profit further elsewhere. 😊

Hi, you beat me to the news today, morning free, get up, chill, finish homework, read and then write, ready to post and wham, there it is. 😂 Yes, we talked about it and good news for me, I was cheering them on. I have both companies, both nicely in the green, and am now rather curious as to how the $ATVI stock will do ?

MW

So Victor explained it to us, how do you perceive these actions by $MSFT? Do you like their involvement in gaming?

DD

I own $MSFT and for me it's great news:)

MW

Exactly, another part of the market that is "controlled" by $MSFT. I have a few pieces too so I'm happy.
