The JIP TOB for Toshiba (6502 JP) is here. Finally. It's still too low. Since the announcement, when it was too low, peers are up a lot, and memory looks healthier.

Hongkong Land (HKL SP) selling Three Exchange Square sounds purely speculative. At best. But it would have a bigly impact on Hong Kong Office sentiment if true. 

Inpex (1605 JP) reported 1H results, a change in forecasts, and a bigly buyback. The mechanics are the same. The impact is a bit different, but it's worth looking at.
