@GullCoveCapital Like all other opposition pieces, this article assumes "facts" not in evidence. The reality is joint testing is needed. $NN has been pushing for this for 2 years, but the opposition has resisted. Why is that? IMHO the key part of the article is below: https://t.co/LFpFs7ebCu

Shelly $SLYG has now confirmed that they are in preliminary discussions with Schneider Electric regarding a potential tender offer for the shares of the Company There is no certainty that these discussions will result in an offer being made, nor as to the terms or timing of such. https://t.co/Nsgvo1MHDh https://t.co/W2TejaVCCk

Like $GLW, I wish margins/ROIC were higher and capital intensity were lower at $AMKR. Yet, with the stock now back around $46 (largely flat YTD and cut in half from its highs), the Amkor setup now seems pretty good over the next 3-4 years due to their scale, new capacity investments, and the increasing importance of advanced packaging capabilities.
