<ul>
<li>When Bain came out saying they would bid more, with preparation to launch in November, KKR launched early to see if they could get the jump, discussed <a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/insights/fuji-soft-9749-kkr-launches-early-to-stymy-bain-who-has-a-founding-family-tailwind" target="_blank" rel="noopener">here</a>.</li>
<li>The stock popped when the Bain's bid was obviously serious, and supported by the Founding Family, but it went to Bain's "5% higher" plus another 5%. I was bearish.</li>
<li>But I signalled willingness to change my mind if the stock price dropped. It has dropped. </li>
