Original: Wall Street’s merger frenzy takes a third quarter breather: Chart of the Day
Wall Street's merger and acquisition boom paused in the third quarter, according to Yahoo Finance's Chart of the Day, which tracks the slowdown in dealmaking activity. After a strong run of announced deals earlier in the year, banks and advisers saw deal volumes take a breather over the summer months. Market watchers are watching whether the lull marks a temporary dip or a broader cooling in corporate appetite for large acquisitions.
Why now: Investors and dealmakers are tracking whether the M&A slowdown signals a lasting shift in market conditions.
Rank over time, top of the chart is #1. 4 snapshots from 8 h ago to 4 h ago.
