Will need a press release or statement from Apple announcing that it has agreed to acquire Comcast posted to either its newsroom (https://www.apple.com/newsroom/) or investor relations site (https://investor.apple.com/investor-relations/default.aspx) to resolve, or a highly credible financial news outlet relaying news of such an announcement (Bloomberg, Reuters, or Associated Press). Note: the question is whether an agreement to acquire has been announced, not whether it will close. So if deal is announced before Jan. 1, 2027, but is set to close at a later date the question will resolve as 'yes.'
