Lol, if you work there, maybe you noticed something going on, but that's illegal intentionally leaking the news. You get it big trouble for that publicly saying a deal is being made. That's just asking for trouble, I don't think anyone dumb enough to make that mistake.
If it was true they keep it to themselves and maybe close friends and family. Not coming out on a public forum or twitter saying it out loud.
Just people trying to pump for a quick sell again.
