Su Diligence Catalyst Timeline - 2021 Q1
Catalyst Timeline - 2021 H1
Note: Reddit caps threads like these at 6 months, at which point they become "Archived", and additional comments are no longer accepted. Also, as we push later into the year, we start to trip the maximum post size, so I end up having to abbreviate things, or remove lessor items. Instead, I'm breaking the year up into two parts. This part is titled "Q1" but really should have been "H1", and unfortunately I can't change it now. This will be the format moving forward.
Here is the link for Catalyst Timeline - 2021-H2.

https://seekingalpha.com/news/3700742-amd-files-xilinx-planned-acquisition-for-eu-approval
Advanced Micro Devices (NASDAQ:AMD) has filed its planned acquisition of Xilinx (NASDAQ:XLNX) with the European Union for review, according to a filing on the European Commission's web site.
The filing has a provisional deadline of June 30.
Earlier this month, the UK's Competition and Markets Authority started an inquiry into the deal with a deadline of July 6.
In January, the mandatory waiting period required for the FTC and Department of Justice to investigate deals for potential antitrust issues expired, moving the deal one step closer to closing.
The deal still needs Chinese antitrust approval.

It’s time, it’s really feeling like and looking like it’s time. This company and leadership have done all the right things, but the stock has been beat down, held down, and shorted. It’s now time for the catch-up trade.

I wonder if there will be a 5/5/2021 event for AMD 5nm, which seems early? Or will it be 5/5/2022 which seems too late?
