NYSE Owner Intercontinental Exchange (ICE) Makes Takeover Offer for eBay

A deal could value the online marketplace at more than $30b. ICE is primarily interested in owning eBay’s core marketplace business.

Acquiring eBay would be an unusual move for Atlanta-based ICE, which in its 20-year history has largely stuck to running marketplaces for financial instruments like stocks and derivatives, rather than the sorts of consumer goods sold on San Jose, Calif.-based eBay’s platform.
