All of the large companies are doing interviews with the possible future take overs. It won't happen for a long time because of several factors.
1- They are scared of the Government and that is the primary reason right now.
2- The companies losing market share will look to bolster their revenue stream and they have time to equate the market loss against the cost of making a take over work. Any chance of that is illegal will stop a take over in its tracks.
3- They look at what the competition is doing and that could be a deciding factor.
4- They have to determine risk vs cost. And how much is the target making, are they profitable and if not how long will it take to turn them around.
5- A load of other consideration before a take over can happen.
Take overs will happen but in time till the companies are sure and they run the potential risks into the ground.
We are talking hundreds , if not billions of dollars and these companies do not like parting with that kind of money without exhausting DD.
They may take a small piece of a company to see how it works out. If they like the results they will jump in with both feet but that could take years.
