Elliot advisors, the activist hedge fund & NX Groups largest shareholder has announced plans to sell nearly a 10% stake in NX group worth £120 million
Elliot bought in to NX group when the group was strangled by high levels of debt & took part in the rights issue back in 2009. They have up to last year caused NX group numerous headaches through attempted shareholder revolts, pushing for the group to be broken up & sold off in pieces, merging with another UK or European transport group & even having its own nominated non exec directors on the NX board of directors. This latest announcement appear to show that Elliot are finally losing interest & setting its sights elsewhere
