Anglo shares rise amid renewed takeover speculation
BHP is now free to relaunch a bid to acquire Anglo, as the six-month standstill mandated by London’s takeover rules has expired.
Russian billionaire Roman Abramovich’s company Crispian has no plans at the moment to sell a further stake in mining giant Norilsk Nickel, Interfax news agency cited Crispian co-owner Vladimir Abramov as saying on Thursday.
Abramovich sold $551 million worth of shares earlier this month.
