CONFIRMED82% CONFIDENCEThe disclosure is Bloomberg's report, dated "September 11, 2026" (Yahoo's[1][2][5] syndicated copy went up at 22:26 UTC and quotes Friday's closing share prices); Reuters' write-up the same evening says "Bloomberg News reported on Friday", and Quartz's 14 September story is a follow-up, so the pin is the all-day 11 September.
Bloomberg reported that Apollo Global Management is in talks to buy DePuy Synthes, J&J's $9.3 billion-a-year orthopaedics unit, at a value close to $20 billion, with a deal possible within weeks though J&J could still spin the unit off instead.
