why should SK Hynix trust anything said to them by either company, move on

Apple is probably pulling the strings.

They did not even get Bain to agree.

The Nikkei business daily, which first reported the news, also said the companies were unable to agree on conditions with top Kioxia shareholder Bain Capital.

What the h€ll! Two years + flirting with a merger surely someone asked SK Hynix if they would balk?

This clown car can't continue any further. Competitors already have a three year lead in technology.

Let me do WD executives job for them by typing: if the merger fails in October... it will happen in November...or December... or sometime in 2024... or 2025.

Accelerate, stop, accelerate, stop. Like in a traffic jam.
Now that it stopped, it can accelerate again.
Like in a traffic jam. The hope will not be allowed to stop by management.
In management style: The merger talks are changing currently quickly its speed with a negative momentum.

@tac+1phFRmdp need is now for a contingency plan, so let's see

So now it’s interesting to see if flash will be split from hdd.

most unfortunate news; wish all the best

This episode is a good lesson. Letting the employees focus distracted and emotionally disturbed by this fanfare is really a complete waste of time ... That time spent should have been better used to really restructure the company reduce the heavy top and reward the deserving workers. This outcome reminds all is time to start doing serious real work. The many abuses by many top leaders in never showing up in the office should be stopped, they should be held accountable.

A good reminder to all the days of easy money, profiting through financial engineering are over.

Yippieee!! No more layoffs

Fire DG!

It is over
