The slowdown in merger announcements two weeks ago appears to have only been a temporary breather. For the first time since we launched this service in mid-March, we have seen seven new mergers announced in a single week. Besides the seven new all cash deals announced last week, we had one deal that closed. The deal that closed was the acquisition of Zenith National Insurance (ZNT) by Fairfax on May 20.
