back in focus as investors focus on whether the online brokerage weighed
down by subprime exposure is a takeover target.
Triarc Cos. (TRY) late Tuesday said it made a lower offer for Wendy's
International Inc. (WEN) than the $37-to-$41 a share bid it once estimated
it could bid, The Wall Street Journal reported.
German utility RWE postponed its American Water initial public offering due
to sklep wielkopowierzchniowy conditions.
BP PLC (BP) rose after saying it made a major new gas-condensate discovery
