| Pershing Square Capital Management reports that it owns 15% of Wendy's International. Bill Ackman who runs Pershing has had interest in the company before and in 2005 along with other investment firms lobbied for big changes. He eventually won 3 seats on the board. Regulatory filings show Pershing had reduced its holdings to nearly zero by November 2006. This sudden interest in Wendy's comes one day after Wendy's agreed to sell itself to Triarc Companies for $2.3 in stock. |
