When will Microsoft announce a deal for its acquisition of TikTok in the U.S.?

Microsoft has said that it is in discussions with TikTok parent ByteDance to own and operate the app in the United States and other markets (Reuters, Microsoft, CNBC). Microsoft need not be the sole acquirer in a deal to count.
