eBay's board rejection of GameStop's unsolicited $55.5 billion acquisition proposal on May 12—valuing eBay at $125 per share in a 50/50 cash-and-stock deal representing a 46% premium to its February 4 unaffected close—has solidified trader consensus against the merger, pricing "No" at 84.5% on Polymarket. GameStop's $10 billion market cap pales against eBay's $50 billion, raising acute financing concerns, including a potential 400% leverage spike and over $1 billion in annual interest costs that could erode free cash flow. CEO Ryan Cohen urged engagement on May 13, but absent committed funding or revised terms, market-implied odds reflect formidable barriers like board opposition and execution risks, with no further catalysts disclosed ahead of year-end resolution.

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.
