On August 10, 2023, Capri, which owns the Michael Kors brand, and competitor Tapestry, Inc. ("Tapestry"), which owns the Coach and Kate Spade brands, jointly announced their entry into a merger agreement, pursuant to which Tapestry would purchase Capri for $57 per share in cash (the "Capri Acquisition"). 

On November 6, 2023, Capri and Tapestry disclosed that they each received a request for additional information from the Federal Trade Commission ("FTC") in connection with its antitrust review of the Capri Acquisition.

On this news, the price of Capri stock declined from $50.66 per share on November 6, 2023 to $48.82 per share on November 7, 2023 on abnormally high trading volume. 

In mid-April 2024, FTC Bureau of Competition Director Henry Liu made comments about the agency's focus at the 2024 American Bar Association Antitrust spring meeting in Washington, D.C. Multiple news outlets reported that investors were concerned that Liu may have been referencing the Capri Acquisition as a potential enforcement target through his comments.

On this news, the price of Capri stock declined from $44.03 per share on April 9, 2024 to $39.31 per share on April 12, 2024 on abnormally high trading volume. 

On April 17, 2024, The New York Times reported that the FTC was preparing to sue to block the Capri Acquisition, according to "two people with knowledge of the matter who were not authorized to discuss the deliberations."

On this news, the price of Capri stock declined from $38.93 per share on April 16, 2024 to $37.87 per share on April 17, 2024 on abnormally high trading volume. 

On April 22, 2024, the FTC filed a lawsuit in federal court to enjoin the Capri Acquisition, alleging that, if allowed, the Capri Acquisition would eliminate direct head-to-head competition between Kate Spade, Coach, and Michael Kors, which it claimed all compete within the "accessible luxury handbag market." 

On this news, the price of Capri stock declined from $37.96 per share on April 22, 2024 to $34.81 per share on April 25, 2024 on abnormally high trading volume. 

Then, after a seven-day hearing, on October 24, 2024, a federal judge granted the FTC's motion to preliminarily enjoin the Capri Acquisition. 

As a result of this news, the price of Capri stock dropped from $41.60 per share on October 24, 2024 to $21.26 per share on October 25, 2024, a nearly 50% decline on abnormally high trading volume.
