According to @business, Alimentation Couche-Tard abandoned its $44.4 billion bid for Seven & i nearly three months ago (source: Bloomberg @business). According to @business, Seven & i shares remain 24% below the proposed bid price with few signs of reversing, indicating a sustained valuation gap relative to the offer level that traders should note for event-driven setups (source: Bloomberg @business). According to @business, with the bid withdrawn, the discount reflects post-deal repricing rather than an active merger-arbitrage spread, framing expectations for liquidity and positioning in Japan retail equities (source: Bloomberg @business). According to @business, the post provides no direct linkage to digital assets, implying no immediate crypto-market catalyst based on the disclosed information (source: Bloomberg @business).
