There's a lot going on in Ubisoft (UBI.FR) shares. The company's shares erased all the gains seen since the start of today's trading, after the company announced today that it is regularly reviewing all strategic options amid media reports of a potential buyout by Tencent and the Guillemot family, which somewhat dampened the euphoria of last week with its overtones. Recall that it was this news that propelled the company's shares up more than 35% on Friday.
