32、common kind of consolidation today is the merger. A merger occurs when two or more companies get together to form one company. With the deregulation of natural gas, the nations 20 interstate pipeline companies became fearful of cut-throat competition. Some felt that they could increase their efficie

33、ncy and improve their market flexibility by merging. In 1985 Internorth of Omaha paid 2.3 billion for Houston Natural Gas Corporation, thereby gaining control of the worlds longest pipeline. The system connected markets from coast to coast and raised sales to 10 billion. On occasion, mergers have oc

36、dustries. From the end of World War I until the 1930s, large firms swallowed smaller firms to create oligopolies.

37、 and then gradually declined. Many of the acquisitions involved giant firms in one industry buying up large companies in totally unrelated industries. Such mergers are called conglomerate mergers. A classic example is Mobil Oil Corporations purchase of the huge retail chain Montgomery Ward & Company

38、 Mergers in the last ten years were in the thousands. More important is the value of the transactions, which has risen sharply. The number of mergers and acquisitions apply only to those valued at 100 million or more. The petroleum industry had mergers and acquisitions valued at closed to 80 billio
