<li>13mos ago we saw a sea change. Toyota Group started the process of cross-holding unwinds. They've moved quickly. LOTS of unwinding and so far nearly ¥2trln in buybacks announced.</li>
<li>Aisin, Toyota, and Toyota Industries (TIC) sold Denso first. Then Denso sales of TIC and Renesas, then Aisin, then Exedy, now TIC is selling the rest of its Denso.</li>

<li>In the end, 343.83mm shares were tendered (53.71mm shares more than originally expected, worth about ¥150bn at Tender Price). That creates back-end "issues" which must be considered.</li>
<li>The resulting supply/demand profile is mixed, but on balance, I expect sees positive demand into the H1 earnings announcement. Watch for another buyback possibly announced then.</li>
