<ul>
<li>It has been four months since JIP officially announced their intention to launch a Tender Offer 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> by end-July. 7 weeks since Toshiba's Board supported it.</li>
<li>There's been no material public griping. Peers are sharply higher. There have been news stories suggesting a Western Digital/Kioxia deal is close. That's now extended. The Toshiba deal possibly too. </li>
<li>But huge outperformance by peers, and possible clarity from Kioxia deal terms are unlikely to move the Toshiba Board to demand more. </li>
