>>79544913>>79640450Shortstack anon here, it's time to close out the first day of July in Japan! While we're gonna look over a definitive translation of the Cover Shareholder's report, outside of that it's gonna be really brief. I got places to be so let's make it quick.
STOCK OVERVIEW
Anycolor closes out just shot of the 26XX area, at 2712 yen (-47) with barely any resistance at the end. Considering how it accelerated at it's fall after lunch, I believe my rrat could hold a little bit of weight, but that's not a guarantee.
Cover is also in the same position sliding back down below 2000 down to 1962 yen (-42). Potentially just following trends? Who knows, but still a bad first impression for July.
The NIKKEI closed out a 0.12% gain today as well.
Trading volumes
Anycolor: 658k

COVER SHAREHOLDERS MEETING OVERVIEW (DEFINITIVE EDITION)
First and foremost, be sure to credit
>>79599826 and
>>79614756 and whoever compiled it in
>>79626497 for translating/compiling all of this for us, I deserve no credit for their actions.
With that being said, I'll be separating Stock/Business and Events/Non-Business topics. Just so you can skip over and see what Cover is doing on the talent/event side of things if you wish (though you should read the Business part as well.)
Do note, the Japanese transcriber faced audio issues so part of some responses may have been omitted. So while it *could* be accurate, Please take it with a grain of salt.
If anything comes from a question that audio disruptions, it will be marked with (TBR)
