Bid

A bid is an offer to buy something, such as a company, an asset, or a contract, at a specified price. It is a formal proposal made by one party to another in a competitive process, often seen in mergers and acquisitions or public tenders.

Why it’s in the news: Bids are in the news due to a corporate acquisition attempt, a government's controversial energy purchase, and a criminal investigation into fraudulent bidding practices.
