GameStop’s unsolicited $55.5 billion cash-and-stock bid for eBay, launched in May 2026 at a 46% premium, has been firmly rejected by the target’s board as neither credible nor attractive. Despite GameStop building a nearly 10% stake and pledging to pursue a deal, eBay’s resistance, the acquirer’s significantly smaller scale, and the need for substantial third-party financing plus regulatory approvals have kept market-implied odds of success below 10%. Recent GameStop results show robust cash reserves and improving EBITDA, yet these have not translated into deal momentum. A breakthrough would require either board-level engagement from eBay or a successful proxy campaign, neither of which has materialized in the three months since the initial proposal.

This market will resolve to "Yes" if it is officially announced that eBay will be, has been, or is being acquired by or merged with GameStop, by December 31, 2026, 11:59 PM ET. Otherwise, this market will resolve to "No".
Mergers or acquisitions involving eBay or its parent company, eBay Inc., and GameStop or its parent company (if applicable), will qualify.
An announcement by eBay or GameStop within this market's timeframe will qualify for a "Yes" resolution, regardless of whether or when the announced acquisition/merger actually occurs.
Announcements of partial sales may count, as long as GameStop acquires a controlling interest in eBay. A “controlling interest” refers to a change in ownership sufficient to control the company’s strategic decisions (typically more than 50% of equity, or equivalent control via voting and governance rights). Transactions or investments that do not result in a transfer of controlling interest will not count.
The primary resolution source for this market will be official information from eBay and GameStop; however, a consensus of credible reporting may also be used.GameStop’s unsolicited $55.5 billion cash-and-stock bid for eBay, launched in May 2026 at a 46% premium, has been firmly rejected by the target’s board as neither credible nor attractive.
