Quick Glance: Potential Buyers for TikTok Revealed
- The clock is ticking for TikTok to find a new owner. President Joe Biden signed a law that could ban TikTok in the US unless ByteDance sells the app. Possible buyers range from tech companies to retailers and investment bankers.
- Established tech giants like Meta or Google are unlikely buyers due to antitrust hurdles. Large companies with deep pockets face regulatory skepticism, although they could have the resources to purchase TikTok.
- Microsoft, which has shown interest in TikTok in the past, may have another opportunity after successfully navigating antitrust scrutiny with the Activision Blizzard deal. Oracle and former US government officials like Steven Mnuchin are also potential buyers.
- Mnuchin has announced assembling a team of investors to acquire TikTok. His offer, however, might exclude TikTok's algorithm, sparking controversial discussions. Other potential buyers like Kevin O'Leary are also considering acquiring TikTok, with O'Leary suggesting an initial bid between $20 and $30 billion.
