Back on the 5 January, First Abu Dhabi Bank (FAB DH) said it had considered a bid for Standard Chartered (STAN LN/2888 HK),  but was no longer evaluating an Offer.
Such a statement kickstarts a six-month cooling-off period whereby FAB is restricted from reloading. This means all deal work must cease.  Unless another bidder emerges or STAN's board approves. 
In a curious development, STAN's shares popped ~11% yesterday, on no apparent news.

STAN remains cheap after its recent price run-up. Any change of control development is five months away. If at all. I'd still look to get involved...
