After Walmart (WMT) and Vizio (VZIO) pulled and refiled their notification under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Act Wednesday, Dealreporter told its readers that the move "may have investors wondering if this could become another Amazon (AMZN) and iRobot (IRBT) situation," contacts tell The Fly. While the M&A-focused publication said "there are traces of that same dynamic here," it added that "this pull-and-refile suggests this deal is on stronger footing than AMZN-IRBT," according to contacts. The news service sees "a genuine chance that this deal could get a prolonged look from regulators due to some of the similar dynamics at play compared to IRBT and AMZN," it reportedly said.
