Did I foresee this happening or was this just coincidence? I'm gonna go with the latter.

Read: Shinkai will be making anime for Toho until an unforeseeable future (as if it's not obvious already).

I’m surprised this made the news. A 6% stake in CoMix is such a small amount that it seems like this is nothing more than a “we believe in you” investment. I.E. don’t think too hard about this investment.
I guess Japan has the same stock reporting laws as the US. In the US, you have to declare once you acquire more than 5% of a companies shares. ANN must have setup an Alert for any disclosures Toho makes.

I mean, ain't he already - considering his movies for last 11 years were distributed by no other than Toho?

My point exactly. It's as if they were afraid he would secretly make a deal to make movies for their rivals, Aniplex for example.

Nah, it's very doubtful - Shinkai pipeline of movie production doesn't add up with Aniplex at all, and it's also very doubtful that he's lower his back to their demands.
If anything, it seems like Toho just want to invest to their long-term partner for benefit of their own instead of trying to circumvent the possible contract rivalry.
