<li>A Nikkei article today suggests FUNDING SECURED for JIP's deal for <a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/entities/toshiba-corp" target="_blank" data-smartkarma-citation="entities:637:1" rel="noopener">Toshiba Corp (6502 JP)</a>. Noises 2wks ago suggested this timing for a deal, but there are no terms yet.</li>
<li>The syndicate, led by SMBC and Mizuho, "has agreed to ¥1.2trln in loans." The two leads take two-thirds but details suggest not all is as smooth as the headline suggests.</li>
<li>The remaining questions are whether the major holders will take the bait at that price, and/or whether JIC would come in over the top. I expect yes to the first.</li>
