Can you buy a company for its market cap?
Can I actually purchase a company based solely on its market capitalization? I understand that market cap represents the total value of a company's outstanding shares, but does it directly translate to how much it would cost to buy the entire company? Wouldn't there be other factors, like debt, assets, and liabilities, that need to be considered? I'm curious to know if buying a company based on its market cap is a feasible strategy or if it's more of a theoretical concept.
