S&P 500 slips on report Fed’s Waller leading race to replace Powell; tech shines
Investing.com -- Bunge (NYSE:BG) Global SA received approval from Chinese antitrust authorities for its $8.2 billion acquisition of Viterra, clearing the final major regulatory hurdle for the deal.
The transaction, which was first announced about two years ago, is now expected to close on or around July 2, according to an emailed statement from Bunge.
"This approval underscores the strategic rationale behind bringing Bunge and Viterra together to create a premier global agribusiness company," Bunge Chief Executive Officer Greg Heckman said in the statement.
Bunge’s stock climbed as much as 8.6% in New York trading. The share price increase extended an earlier rally that was triggered by the Trump administration’s plan to increase US biofuel quotas.
