Toshiba (6502 JP) investors should look at process and understand the difference between this one and others. Some news is not news, other than telling you the dance has started.

United Tractors (UNTR IJ) is cheap. It appears to be running at 6x 2022 earnings. This is not abnormal for a cyclical at the end of the cycle.

Westpac Banking (WBC AU) confirms its interest in Tyro Payments (TYR AU), but still nothing firm.

Nearly eleven months after Total Access Communication (DTAC TB) and True Corp Pcl (TRUE TB) first announced a merger, the NBTC, the Thai telecommunication regulator, has given the go-ahead.  
This long-winded regulatory process hinged on whether the NBTC actually had the legal clout to halt the merger, which would create a duopoly with Advanced Info Service (ADVANC TB) 
The transaction process should accelerate from here with an expected listing of the new entity by year-end.
