Summary:

We are continuing with our new format by focusing on four key stories, including a deal between the two largest real estate brokerage companies Anywhere Real Estate and Compass,  a combination of stock buybacks and insider buying at the semiconductor company Marvell, the largest insider purchase ever and Elliott’s involvement with enterprise software company Workday.

Because we interviewed Evan Tindell for our podcast last week, we also have several updates related to special situations that have occurred over the last two weeks.
