3. Cementing a deal: After a lot of back and forth, Holcim (HCMLY) and Lafarge (LFRGY) have agreed new terms for a mega merger. Nearly a year ago, the two European cement giants announced plans to create the world's biggest construction materials group.

On Monday, the original deal crumbled. Now the companies say the merger is back on, and shares in both firms are rising. Lafarge stock is up by 3.5%. Holcim shares are up by about 1%.
