TOKYO (TheStreet) -- Could Sony (SNE) be an Apple (AAPL) acquisition target? Shares of the electronics giant rose in the Japanese market on Tuesday following speculation that Sony could be attractive M&A bait.
Reuters reports that Sony's stock was up more than 3% at one point Tuesday in the aftermath of a recent Barrons report which touted Sony, Adobe (ADBE) and Disney (DIS) as good fits for Apple.
Such is the intense interest in Apple at the moment, though, that even mere speculation can impact a related stock. An Apple bid for Sony would certainly be a bold move, particularly given the Japanese firm's support for Google's (GOOG) Android operating system, and would also run counter to the tech giant's largely low-key M&A strategy.
2010年にも買収される噂はあって、株価は３％上がったんだよね。
底値だと思った時に敵対的買収を仕掛けてきたら終わりだろ。
