CMA says Microsoft submission has a realistic chance to satisfy their concerns. hmmm

No, he said that the discussions they've had thus far suggests that there's a realistic chance to address their concerns.

They also said they haven't seen their final proposal/submission yet though.

I’m out. Not going to bother waiting for close to $95.

Thanks you MS, Activision, FTC and CMA.

I wasn’t lucky enough to get in when ATVI was dangling in the $60s, but got in the low $70s after the deal was announced but due to competition fears the stock was in the $70-80 range for a year. That’s around when it was rebounding a bit from the lows due to social media nitwits we’re tweeting about corporate culture dragging down the stock and news was everywhere. MS came in during this time looking for a good buy and got it. All those sex scandal articles disappeared. It was a great time to buy.

Hope you made a wedge mate.

MS was part of those nitwits dragging the stock down.

Why is the Activision stock going down? From 94 to 92

The only people still in this now are the greedy.

Imagine not closing out due to waiting for 1 more dollar of movement.

 

[HoofHearted]

Yep

Classy lectern... a cardboard box?

Is it finally over yet?

 

[nightmare-slain]

this isn't going anywhere?

 

[GHG]

A "materially different" transaction is what's being proposed.

Tell us what they are proposing.

 

[PaintTinJr]

The biggest shenanigans in this CMC is the scheduling around school pickup time in the UK. I wonder if that's what the break was for? Grandkids pickup for him.

Either way, from what I'm reading here, it sounds like the CMA are breaking the law

 

[Banjo64]

Is it finally over yet?

Shits just getting good. This old man reminds me of Walder Frey, and the CMA are the Starks.

 

[Pipoqueiro]

omg, thisi s way i not become attorney

 

[Gudji]

What's happening folks aaahhhhh

 

[OverHeat]

Can’t wait for the salty tears whatever way it go this thread is pure entertainment love it

 

[HeisenbergFX4]

What's happening folks aaahhhhh

 

[HoofHearted]

Holy crap - this lawyer is clearly befuddled at the earlier response...

relevant merger situation. relevant merger situation. relevant merger situation.

 

[tmlDan]

they're like hey, there's a new agreement MS has not shared and we don't have it on hand so nothing has changed but it will happen, has not happened...dsafadgdg

 

[adamsapple]

This lawyers nervousness is seeping through the screen.

 

[Topher]

Thanks GHG

 

[nightmare-slain]

is the glasses dude the MS lawyer?

 

[Ass of Can Whooping]

Fuck em up Judge Chad

 

[Varteras]

What's happening folks aaahhhhh

The judge is picking at the CMA. He wants to know the the CMA is looking at a truly restructured deal, and not merely a variant of the old deal.

 

[DryvBy]

Is it finally over yet?

I don't hear any fat women singing just yet. She's still eating.

 

[Banjo64]

No Mr Beard. When?

Christ.

 

[adamsapple]

is the glasses dude the MS lawyer?

I think so, yes. Glasses = MS, Nervous balding guy = CMA.

 

[HoofHearted]

What's happening folks aaahhhhh

 

[GHG]

This judge is fire.

 

[checkcola]

Mr. Beard. Man, this whole thing is begging a netflix mini-series.

 

[adamsapple]

What is section 33 ?

 

[GHG]

Topher you might want to delete that my man. Take note of the disclaimer.

 

[StreetsofBeige]

Hope you made a wedge mate.

Not a ton. I made about 25% or so I think. But let’s just say that $1800 gaming laptop on my radar can be bought and I would even think twice about it even though in reality I can be the most frugal value analyzing cheapskate buying Wendy’s frostys only when I see on deal during their 99 cent summer deal. Lol.

I knew the deal would go through. It’s video game companies and competition bureaus bucking over Call of duty. If telcom companies can get approved I don’t think a product involving Stopping Power and Ghost is something worth stopping.

The only big drawback was it was a lengthy process waiting. Waited a long time for it to hit the $90s.

Me who just randomly stumbled in this thread before my meeting.

 

[adamsapple]

UK court: talking about whiskey precedents
US court: talking about pharma precedents

 

[nightmare-slain]

i don't understand anything they are talking about

 

[feynoob]

Is the deal approved?

 

[tmlDan]

relevant whiskey discussion now occurring

[Begleiter]

Is the deal approved?

Not how the CAT works. If Microsoft won the appeal it would go back to the CMA to address and make a new decision. The court doesn't get to decide the merger is okay for them.

People are definitely forgetting this, it seems.

Live look from the Lawyers eyes talking to the man in charge

 

[Banjo64]

Why should I care?

This guys is savage.

 

[GHG]

The judge said "why should I care".

This is too good lmao.
