The sale of Twitter has become the subject of continuous rumours for many months. The company has reportedly initiated talks with several technology companies to explore selling itself; however, Microsoft does not seem interested, speculate analysts and market researchers.
According to several media reports, Twitter is in talks with companies like Google, Verizon, and Microsoft, and may receive a formal bid soon. However, Microsoft may withdraw its name from the long run, as the company has recently purchased LinkedIn worth $26.6 billion.
On September 23, Twitter share jumped more than 19 per cent to $22.22 per share, as a result the company now said to be valued around $16 billion. After making such a large acquisition, Microsoft is speculated not to purchase Twitter anytime soon, and the deal may be struck by a possible suitor.
