Aren’t they a bit big for that now?

That doesn't matter anymore, it seems.

I don’t think they’ve ever made a $95 billion acquisition. Marvel, Lucasfilm, Pixar, each ~$4-7 billion. I believe Fox was their biggest acquisition by far, and it was decently close to Stripe, at $71 billion.

But yeah, a $95 billion acquisition would be huge, and very rare.

Although, I wouldn’t be surprised if Apple petitioned to buy Disney (market cap ~320B, Apple Cash on hand ~200B)
