<li>The JIC Deal for <a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/entities/shinko-electric-industries" target="_blank" data-smartkarma-citation="entities:15066:1" rel="noopener">Shinko Electric Industries (6967 JP)</a> started trading wide when announced five weeks ago. It is still at 9% for perhaps 9 months.</li>
<li>There is FUD. There are Flows. Just like JSR (4185). Some of that FUD can be explained by "gap risk" on deal break.... or can it? We look at risks.</li>
<li>5 weeks ago, there was more positioning risk than fundamental risk. But now main comp Ibiden has outperformed Shinko by 17%. Gap risk is fundamentally lower now. Bump risk exists.</li>
