GameStop’s May 2026 unsolicited $56 billion cash-and-stock bid for eBay at $125 per share faced swift rejection by eBay’s board as neither credible nor attractive, citing financing uncertainty and execution risks given GameStop’s roughly $11 billion market capitalization against eBay’s $46 billion-plus valuation. GameStop’s cash holdings have since declined to around $5 billion following conversion of its eBay stake to 9.8 percent ownership, while its core revenue continues to contract amid store closures. Recent reports indicate CEO Ryan Cohen is weighing withdrawal in favor of a partnership or board representation rather than a full takeover. These fundamentals underpin the 92.5 percent market-implied probability against completion, though a surprise large-scale financing commitment or successful proxy campaign could still alter the path.

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 May 2026 unsolicited $56 billion cash-and-stock bid for eBay at $125 per share faced swift rejection by eBay’s board as neither credible nor attractive, citing financing uncertainty and execution risks given GameStop’s roughly $11 billion market capitalization against eBay’s $46 billion-plus valuation.
