GameStop’s unsolicited $55–56 billion cash-and-stock bid for eBay at $125 per share was rejected by the eBay board in May 2026 as neither credible nor actionable, reflecting the bidder’s $10–12 billion market capitalization versus eBay’s roughly $46–50 billion valuation and questions over financing. GameStop has since increased its stake to 9.8 percent (43.4 million shares valued near $4.9 billion as of August), yet eBay has shown no engagement while advancing its own growth in focus categories and AI tools. Analysts have highlighted execution and leverage risks in the proposed structure, and recent reports suggest Ryan Cohen may pivot toward a partnership or activist stance rather than a full takeover. With no binding agreement or regulatory filings advancing the deal four months later, the 93.5 percent market-implied probability of no acquisition aligns with these structural and timing barriers, though an unexpected proxy contest or revised terms could still alter the outcome.

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.
