ADBE

JBLU

SAVE

The Biden Administration's stance on mergers has led to blocked deals, including JetBlue's (JBLU) acquisition of Spirit Airlines (SAVE), which is now facing bankruptcy. Spirit's value has plummeted from $3.8 billion to under $1 billion. The blocked Adobe (ADBE) and Figma merger also reflects regulatory challenges. These developments have implications for merger arbitrage investors, the banking sector's revenue from M&A, and the companies involved. While JetBlue's stock rose 4% after the blocked merger, Adobe's shares fell 14% on the day of announcing its Figma acquisition but have since recovered.
