<li>The SBI Tender obtained 56.92mm shares out of 58.21mm shares max. Pro-ration was 100% and SBI now owns 47.77%. </li>
<li>The data suggests Murakami-related holders tendered at least some of their shares. Real World Float (RWF) at the end of the coming week will be ~15-16% of TSO less Treasury.</li>
<li>Now we have a back-end and future squeeze-out trade which will be coloured by SBI taking control, "fair value" valuations, and the possibility of a pre-squeezeout squeeze of RWF.</li>
