Should the nominated directors, to be voted on by EOFlow (294090 KS)'s shareholders at the November EGM, include Medtronic Plc (MDT US) executives, then game on.

Fast Retailing (9983 JP) STILL has a Nikkei 225 problem, which means it probably has to underperform Nikkei 225 slightly between now and the Base Date (31 July 2024).

JMDC (4483 JP) has been one of the more annoying partial tenders out there. Even post-facto, it is tough to know what the disposition was. This is extraordinarily vexing.

Shinko Electric Industries (6967 JP) has been on the block. 2nd Round Bids were apparently due last month, but with "Economic Security" considerations, one wonders if that stretches a bit.
The stock is now at the low end of its range vs Ibiden, and the timing is right for a deal which could give it a pop. 
A "split price" takeover seems reasonable as a structure. I expect upside. Still.
