Keisei Electric Railway Co (9009 JP)'s extreme bifurcation with Oriental Land (4661 JP), widens even more. The holding in Oriental Land is now worth 275% of Keisei's market cap. 
The fact that we don't KNOW what Murakami-san did and Shinsei Bank (8303 JP) shares fell in large volume Friday AND pro-ration was 100% will lead to higher-than-expectd volatility.
The placement, the pledge, the connected party transaction, and a large parcel of shares moving into CCASS (ostensibly the founder/chairman's), suggest all is not well with Shimao Property (813 HK).
