Reverse enquiry drives Bain exit from Gome

Bain Capital Glory exited Gome Electrical Appliances on January 21 via a HK$1.04bn ($134.16m) overnight block, taking advantage of the last available window to execute the trade before the company goes into a blackout period. The stock was sold close to the bottom of the price range, as the private equity firm opted to keep one long-only account happy and ensure good aftermarket performance, rather than push for a higher price.
