Activision Surges 40% On Reports Of Microsoft Acquisition

• https://www.zerohedge.com by Tyler Durden

Microsoft apparently took advantage of the fact that Activision's share price had become depressed in recent weeks due to reports about the company's "toxic culture" (the reports had mostly focused on sexual harassment allegations and the large number of employees who had been fired over these claims). Activision's shares surged 40% on the news, while Microsoft shares retreated 2%.

MSFT has reportedly agreed to buy the established video-game maker, which has produced classic titles dating back to the 1990s, for some $50 billion, according to WSJ.
