  @Dexerto A $12 billion company tried to buy a $55 billion company. eBay said no in under a week. The lopsided M&A math is the most interesting financial story of the day. Ryan Cohen's GameStop submitted a $125 per share takeover bid for eBay. Total deal value: $56 billion, 50% cash and 50% GameStop stock. eBay's board rejected it on Tuesday calling the proposal "neither credible nor attractive." The basic problem with the bid was visible from the moment it landed. GameStop has roughly $12 billion in market cap. The cash half of the deal alone would require $28 billion. GameStop's balance sheet holds approximately $9 billion in cash plus Bitcoin treasury, with maybe $5 billion more available through debt issuance at junk rating. The actual financing capacity didn't get close to the bid size. What was actually happening here. Ryan Cohen has built his career on meme-stock activism. The GameStop bid for eBay reads as a credibility play, not a realistic acquisition attempt. Cohen wins by getting eBay's board to engage, generating coverage that drives GameStop trading volume, and possibly extracting a smaller asset sale at favorable terms. eBay didn't bite. Their rejection letter was three pages of cold technical analysis listing every reason the deal couldn't close. The structural read. Meme-stock M&A is becoming a recognized strategic playbook. Cohen, Carl Icahn's Activist Era, and the various crypto-backed corporate raid attempts of 2023 to 2025 all share the same pattern. Use stock market enthusiasm to mount audacious bids that wouldn't survive traditional financing diligence. eBay won this round. The next round will look exactly like this one. The financial system hasn't priced how often this is going to happen.

  @MTG_HODL @CardPurchaser You issue a refund, and file a damaged in transit claim with eBay’s ESE insurance. Then you move on. You’ll get paid out in like 3 days max to your PayPal and then you block the buyer.

  @APompliano @ryancohen eBay leadership should issue stock or offer board positions to Saudi investors and the crown to cut off any leverage Cohen THINKS he has

  @eBay I have done that. That’s my point. @eBay, is refusing to live up to their guarantee. It’s terrible. Why even have the guarantee, if you refuse to honour it?

  @ryancohen Please fix the seller fees! They are too high and it’s driving people crazy. Make eBay Great Again! 🇺🇸💰😎

  @eevblog So this is why you basically want GameStop to buy Ebay. To fix ALL of this.

  🚨 DEVELOPING: GameStop CEO Ryan Cohen Escalates eBay Takeover Battle 🚨 ​Following the rejection of his $56 billion unsolicited bid, GameStop CEO Ryan Cohen is doubling down. In a formal letter to the eBay board, Cohen demanded that shareholders be given the final word on the $125-per-share cash-and-stock proposal. ​The bid, which eBay dismissed as "neither credible nor attractive," represents a significant premium over recent trading prices.

  @rnewton7777 RC's approach would be easier is GME was at $50-60. Issue shares, take in the cash, fund the eBay purchase. A legacy swap roll in the coming months might set it up. Wonder if there's a trigger available to light the fuse? Either way, selling CCs and CSPs. #GoodMorningEveryone

  @PiersUncensored @piersmorgan @ryancohen If the Board doesn't care about Ebay that's not a problem by Ryan Cohen

  @HeartUElon @Timcast No, you read it wrong, because it's sacrilege to destroy the taste of an espresso by watering it down... It's like installing an eBay exhaust on a Ferrari 🤌🏼

  GATEWAY XCHANGE (@Gatewayxchange_) reported 26 minutes ago

  @DeItaone Ryan Cohen not backing down — escalates the eBay takeover bid after the board rejected his massive $56B offer. Calling eBay “literally obese” and extremely bloated? Brutal but accurate. The company needs serious surgery, and Cohen has a proven track record of turning around struggling retailers. This is what real activist capitalism looks like — challenging complacent boards and pushing for actual value creation. Game on. 🚀

  @APompliano @ryancohen I’m sure eBay shareholders would love to have a CEO who can only make money by selling shares and diluting shareholders. $7billion of GME’s cash is from dilution. GME is down 45% in 5 years. Isn’t accretive dilution great?? 🤡🤡🤡

  @StonksMae You will be diluted and there is no reason eBay would want to pay down a debt you obtained in order to buy it. It makes no sense, Cohen isn’t worth a debt burden on the company. You’re literally better off selling GME and buying eBay.
