美国地区法院阻止了85亿美元的Tapestry-Capri合并, U.S. District Court blocks $8.5bn Tapestry-Capri merger, siding with FTC over competition concerns.

美国地区法院阻止了Tapestry和Capri手包公司与联邦贸易委员会(FTC)的85亿美元的合并。 A U.S. District Court has blocked the $8.5 billion merger between handbag companies Tapestry and Capri, siding with the Federal Trade Commission (FTC). 法官裁定合并将损害竞争,并可能提高消费者的价格。 The judge ruled the merger would harm competition and potentially raise prices for consumers. 卡普里股价下跌了47%,而Tapestry股价上了13%. Capri's stock fell 47%, while Tapestry's shares rose 13%. 虽然这项交易得到了日本和欧盟监管机构的批准,但这项裁决危及合并在美国市场的未来。 Although the deal had received approval from regulators in Japan and the EU, this ruling jeopardizes the merger's future in the U.S. market.
