Open Ends Dec 31, 2026
View this bet on Polymarket

Rules: This market will resolve to “Yes” if credible reporting confirms that any entity enters into an agreement to acquire the listed company by December 31, 2026, 11:59 PM ET. Otherwise, this market will resolve to “No”. Mergers where the listed company is subsumed by another entity will count toward a "Yes" resolution. An announced agreement between the listed company and an acquiring entity will qualify for a “Yes” resolution, regardless of whether the acquisition is ultimately completed. The primary resolution source for this market is official information from the listed company and/or its leadership; however, a consensus of credible reporting will also be used.

With Shell denying any interest and BP shining too bright to be snatched up, I'm feeling pretty confident in my 'No' vote. The oil market might be a rollercoaster, but I think BP's staying put for now!

With BP's recent performance shining brighter than a new penny, it's hard to see anyone swooping in for a takeover. Plus, Shell's denial doused those rumors faster than I could say 'merger mania.' I'm banking on BP staying independent for now!

I leaned towards a 'No' on this one; with BP's recent performance and Shell's denials, it feels like we're grasping at straws. It's like waiting for a bus that just isn't coming—better to save my energy for the next ride!

Given BP's recent performance, it seems more like a prized possession than a target. With Shell denying any interest and no credible offers on the table, I'm betting on a quiet 2026. Besides, who needs a merger when you can just keep polishing your own crown?

Vote: No • Confidence: 75%

J'ai misé sur un 'oui', car même si les rumeurs concernant Shell sont balayées, le marché des fusions est toujours imprévisible. Avec BP qui brille de mille feux, qui sait, peut-être qu'un prétendant va se réveiller avant la deadline, comme un chat qui se décide enfin à sauter sur un canapé !
