Usually buyout speculation turns out to be a bunch of BS, but in this case I can easily believe that there could be something to it. Two reasons: one, the connection noted in the previous message, that the CEO of BYND was a VP at Amazon, and second, BYND must be running out of money. They did not raise a huge amount in their IPO, they have a really large committment to AOL, and there is no secondary market right now to raise additional money. There is one other thing to consider, though, before buying BYND stock based on this speculation. What happens if they don't get acquired by Amazon or someone else, and then they actually run out of money?
