Top of the market - the series returns - part 4

Take a bow Bryce Elder, stock market reporter over at the Financial Times. The intrepid hack has just landed the M&A scoop of the year, decade or, perhaps, century with his tale this morning about Kraft Heinz's £100 billion plus takeover approach for Unilever. If you follow M&A, I'm sure you have seen the statements.

I suspect rival hacks, such as the Kleinmanator of Sky News or team Bloomborg, will have trouble topping that one. Good luck to them.

Anyway, what I'm trying to figure out is this the deal at a point in a cycle where somebody "rings the bell" or are we in for a few more years of mega dealmaking. I hope it's the latter...
