I doubt the SEC would allow them to buy up Magna though as they would be a major stronghold on the industry.
SEC doesn't make decisions on antitrust cases (no, not OUR antitrust)... Justice Dept does. SEC regulates securities and exchanges. I wouldn't think the Justice Dept would oppose a merger here with the stipulation of the furlough of "less-essential" properties as there would still be enough competitors in the marketplace.

Harrah's-Caesars merger would be a comparable case.
