This market resolves as YES immediately if Intel is fully acquired before 2030, such that it ceases to operate as an independent entity. The acquisition must be legally finalized, including regulatory approvals and any required shareholder votes. If no such acquisition is completed by this date, the market resolves as NO.

Background:
Intel recently experienced its worst financial year since its 1971 IPO. Credible rumors have surfaced suggesting that the company has become an acquisition target.

I will not bet in this market.
