$16bn Twitter price for potential bidders

Salesforce.com and other companies eyeing Twitter Inc may pay more than $16 billion to get their hands on the social-media company’s valuable data.

But they’ll also inherit challenges, including management turmoil, lacklustre growth, and an unsolved identity crisis.

While it remains a destination for conversation among influential people, Twitter would be tough to digest. Chief executive officer and co-founder Jack Dorsey has another CEO job at Square and may not come along with an acquisition.
