A study into possible reforms of competition law is currently under way.\nThere has been a chilling effect, said Kindler, who predicted fewer than ten deals worth more than $10 billion in 2022 between publicly listed companies.\nBarshay noted that private equity firms would likely escape the same scrutiny given to a deal involving two listed entities, allowing buyout firms to continue making big acquisitions.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false,"reportStatus":false,"tweetType":1,"comments":[{"id":6805968,"gmtCreate":1638403316019,"gmtModify":1638403316110,"authorId":3576900825805492,"author":{"id":3576900825805492,"authorId":3576900825805492,"name":"PYCHUA","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/7984deb1539a8169f76cb68052224a36","vip":1,"crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"individualDisplayBadges":[]},"repliedAuthorId":0,"objectId":603605626,"type":1,"supId":0,"prevId":0,"content":"😀","text":"😀","html":"😀"}],"langContent":"CN"}],"hasMoreComments":true,"newsSizeData":{"likeSize":52,"commentSize":2,"repostSize":0,"favoriteSize":0,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false}}
