Event-Driven

<ul>
<li>An article this morning in the Yomiuri suggested JIC was bidding, even though they have not been in any "lists of 8 bidders" I have seen. The market yawned. </li>
<li>An article this evening says bidders are offering "up to ¥7,000/share" but there is a range of pricing and conditions. Not surprising, but we know little. </li>
<li>Shareholder structure matters. This has been event-y for a long time so I expect not many new buyers are ready to come in. This just shifts the range. And risk.</li>
