<li>In August, <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> announced that the JIC consortium Tender Offer due to be launched by end-August would be delayed. Next update? January 2025.</li>
<li>Everyone had expected a delay, but the stock fell. Then tech/AI fell out of bed, Ibiden crashed, China export restrictions noise/pushback caused further upset. But Ibiden and tech are rebounding.</li>
<li>At 9% it was a raging buy;post-dip at 7% it was good. Now it's 6+%. Still wide, still interesting, still stable but year-end path dependency... So I still like Ibiden.</li>
