Why do people believe that MS could actually buy Sony? Sony made just over $79 Billion in revenue in 2012, and MS made just over $73 Billion in revenue in 2012.

Share price =/= revenue =/= profits

My guess.

You're right that they don't precisely equal one another, however there is a major correlation between them. They don't equal one another simply because they have different definitions. They don't equal one another, but they do effect one another.
