<ul>
<li>The duo of Brookfield and Atlassian/Australian billionaire Mike Cannon-Brookes has apparently lobbed a higher offer for <a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/entities/agl-energy-ltd" target="_blank" data-smartkarma-citation="entities:554:1" rel="noopener">AGL Energy Ltd (AGL AU)</a> and AGL has apparently rejected it.</li>
<li>Confirmation from AGL is due tomorrow but given the previous bid was "ridiculously low", "extremely undervalued" the company, and had "unserious" elements, expect the language to be similar.</li>
<li>Next steps probably mean waiting for the De-Merger Circular due April but possibly May. In the meantime, this probably trades in a range.</li>
