Updated August 23, 2026 · through Special Situations Digest #29 (Aug 23, 2026) · 157 this week
A running index of announced acquisitions and mergers covered in the Special Situations Digest: recent merger agreements, acquisition proposals, and definitive transactions across global markets, with each item linked to the underlying filing. Below: the 100 most recent situations spanning 14 countries. Earlier coverage includes 2263+ additional situations from prior issues.
Acquisitions are the largest single category of special-situations activity tracked weekly. The flow includes announced strategic mergers, definitive cash deals, all-stock combinations, and contested offers. Each presents a distinct setup: deal arbitrage on signed transactions, premium-capture on contested bids, and breakup-risk evaluation on regulatory-sensitive combinations. Tracking the full pipeline across 25+ markets surfaces opportunities that U.S.-focused coverage misses.
The full weekly digest covers 500 to 700 situations across 25+ markets every Sunday (608 in Digest #29), with Excel/PDF/JSON exports, Copy-for-LLM and a searchable database of 9,500+ situations. Subscribe for full access.
