The potential takeover of social media firm Pinterest Inc. by PayPal Holdings Inc. would top the charts in what’s already a record-breaking year for tech deals and push industry M&A volumes past the $1 trillion mark for the first time. The online payments provider is discussing a roughly $45 billion acquisition of Pinterest. That would rank as the biggest takeover in the tech industry this year, surpassing Square Inc.’s proposed $29 billion purchase of “buy now, pay later” company Afterpay Ltd. and Microsoft Corp.’s $20 billion deal for speech-recognition pioneer Nuance Communications Inc. What is thoughts on Pinterest Takeover?
