Could Amazon Buy eBay in a 2020 Cash Deal?
Dec 31, 2019
Amazon is in a prime position to make a bid for eBay in 2020 (and can afford to do so in cash) after a decade which saw the departure of two CEO’s forced out by activist giants. According to analysis of potential synergies from The Edge, eBay has had more than its fair share of outsider intervention since it bought PayPal in August 2002 for $1.5 billion.
This may be the best opportunity Amazon has to takeover its longstanding online competitor.
