The US Court of Appeals rejected the FTC's attempt to block the deal between Microsoft and Activision Blizzard
Missed the important news. We are correcting ourselves. On Friday, the complaint of the US Federal Trade Commission (FTC) was rejected. She filed an appeal against the decision of Judge Jacqueline Scott Corley, who refused to impose a preliminary injunction on the purchase of Activision Blizzard.
The U.S. Court of Appeals rejected the application. Thanks to this, the completion of the transaction between Microsoft and Activision Blizzard became possible.
In turn, the objections of the UK Competition and Markets Authority (CMA), the court hearing on which is taking place right now, in theory, the parties will be able to ignore or take into account after the merger is completed.
