Tactically, it isn't attractive owning Toshiba (6502 JP) at 1% spread. Expect it to trade wider. There is still a fair bit of stock to come down the pipe.
Because of significant business overlap, CK Infrastructure Holdings (1038 HK) looks very similar to Power Assets Holdings (6 HK). And CKI is coming up cheap on my monitor versus PAH.
There is less fundamental alpha to Rakuten Bank (5838 JP) than before and more "just keep it because it is going up"-ness to the trade.
