Good evening,
The past month has been a bizarre, volatile and unpredictable time for equity markets.
But perhaps the most bizarre trading period every day since the coronavirus rout started is the 10-minute window after the ASX closing bell rings, known as the match.
Volumes changing hands in this period over the past few weeks have been as much as would normally cross during a six-hour trading day.
We delve into why.
One group that has stayed noticeably quiet amid all this market drama is private equity, but Street Talk is here to put an end to that.
Tonight, we take a look at which portfolio companies owned by Aussie PE outfits are battling hardest against COVID-19.
Unsurprisingly, a common theme for most is one key word: leverage.
Finally, it looks like it could be game, set and match at Golden Energy and Resources' takeover play for Stanmore Coal.
Happy reading,
Sarah Thompson, Anthony Macdonald and Tim Boyd

We all know who's battling with COVID-19 in listed company land - and now we have a list of ones to watch in private equity land.
Trading at the match has seldom been so popular - or important.
When the ASX announced new raising rules this week to help companies navigate the coronavirus crisis, it probably didn't envisage this next deal.
It looks to be game, set and match at coal miner and takeover target Stanmore Coal.
There's never a dull moment in the highly competitive world of private banking.
