What's driving the prediction?

The forecast's primary influencing factors stem from the increase of web research activity on mergers and acquisitions (M&A) originating from the company. Additionally, the presence of overlapping board members in key companies contributes to the overall prediction. However, a mitigating factor is the reduction in market speculation driven by news rumors.

What's changed?

Over the last week, the top change drivers are: web research activity (+300%), stock volatility (+10%), offset by reduced news rumors (-30%).
