Carl Icahn logs nearly $2bn loss as he sells Hertz stock

In the latest filing, lIcahn noted he had sold “at a significant loss,” but the sale “does not mean that I don’t continue to have faith in the future of Hertz.”

Carl Icahn has sold his entire stake in Hertz Global Holdings the first business day after the embattled car-rental firm said on 22 May that it would file for bankruptcy

Entities controlled by Icahn sold 55.3 million Hertz shares on the open market Tuesday for $39.8m, an average per-share price of 72 cents. Icahn disclosed the transaction in a form he filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. He had been the company’s top shareholder, as the shares sold represented a 39% stake in the company.
