| 0:00.0 | Welcome to Seeking Alpha's Wall Street Breakfast, where we cover the top news for investors every morning. |
| 0:07.6 | It's good to have you here on this Thursday, March 26th. I'm Julie Morgan. |
| 0:14.2 | Oliplex Holdings is up 49% in pre-market action. Oliplex agreed to be acquired by German consumer giant Henkel. |
| 0:22.9 | The all-cast transaction is valued at $1.4 billion. The $2.6 per share cash offer represents |
| 0:30.3 | a massive 55% premium over Oliplex's March 25th closing price and a premium of approximately |
| 0:37.4 | 45% over the volume-weighted |
| 0:40.4 | average price for the last 30 trading days. The deal is expected to be completed in the second |

| 1:34.4 | perceived in Washington. According to the report, this is preliminary, and the airline may decide |
| 1:40.1 | to keep the status quo and not try to sell itself. It was not known whether JetBlue had held |
| 1:45.6 | any talks or received indications of interest. JetBlue declined to comment on internal talks to |
| 1:51.5 | Semaphore. United and Southwest also declined to comment. Alaska Air did not immediately respond |
| 1:57.9 | to a request for comment. Shares of rival airlines rose after the |
