Pinterest Shares Jump After Information of Microsoft’s Potential Acquisition of the Company is Released

Pinterest shares rose 5% on Thursday after a Financial Times report revealed Microsoft tried to buy the social media firm.

Microsoft’s potential acquisition of the $51 billion online photo-pinning platforms would have been its largest deal to date. But according to the FT’s sources, talks are currently not active.
