GameStop noted it remains committed to the acquisition plan, but did not disclose the deal’s rationale or next steps.

Serenity stated in a post that it favors robotics firms Unitree and Agility Robotics, adding that its largest position in the humanoid robot space is currently concentrated in Agility Robotics, as it personally prefers U.S.-based humanoid robot companies. Regarding exposure to upstream components, Serenity said it currently holds Harmonic Drive (6324), noting that harmonic reducers and related parts account for a large share of the bill of materials. It also holds Vishay Precision, citing its sensor business and potential to become a candidate supplier for Tesla Optimus. It also expresses optimism about LeaderDrive (688017) and Schaeffler, though it does not hold positions in these firms. In other AI data center-related companies, it also gains indirect exposure to robotics through areas like storage. Serenity emphasized that it does not advise anyone to replicate its positions, noting it is only sharing its personal holdings and views. Serenity said the humanoid robot industry is large, citing a Goldman Sachs report that states, "South Korean companies will directly and indirectly account for 30% of global humanoid robot output." It noted that there are numerous players globally, and related companies continue to appear in Goldman Sachs' institutional reports and coverage. Currently, Agility Robotics is its most favored company.
