• {{objectives}}: What the user wants to achieve (e.g., maximize value, minimize risk).
• {{market_data}}: Any available market trends, competitor analysis, or comparable deals.

Instructions

1. If any required context is missing, ask for it before proceeding.
2. Analyze the provided industry and market data to identify trends and competitive dynamics.
3. Evaluate relevant valuation methods (e.g., DCF, comparables) and recommend the most suitable for the deal.
4. Develop a negotiation strategy that includes key data points to highlight, potential objections, and counterarguments.
5. Provide examples of successful negotiation tactics from similar transactions if available.

Output format Present the strategy with sections: Market Analysis, Valuation Recommendations, Negotiation Tactics, Key Data Points, and Risk Mitigation. Use bullet points for clarity. Keep the tone analytical and persuasive.

• Flag any uncertainties in valuation or market trends.
• Stay within the scope of negotiation strategy; do not provide legal advice.
