Good evening,

Snap FIRB changes, ASX Listing Rules relief, stalking horse PIPEs and overloaded video call systems - what a time to be alive!

It feels like months ago that bankers wore suits, the sharemarket was tanking, Clayton Utz cleared out its Sydney office and lunch was more than a toasted sandwich.

March was nothing if not memorable. And long. Small-cap investors did their best to erase the memories on Tuesday, buying dog stocks on the last day of the quarter. It remains to be seen whether they were positioning for a bounce or trying to protect mandates at an important time - or perhaps both.

Elsewhere, we take a look at which investment banks have popped up at Flight Centre and check in with John Laing's plans to sell a $500 million-odd Australian renewable portfolio.

Happy reading,

Sarah Thompson, Anthony Macdonald and Tim Boyd
