Japanese regulator clears Peabody ArcelorMittal bid for Macarthur Coal
Japan's competition regulator has cleared a USD 5 billion hostile bid for Australia's Macarthur Coal by Peabody Energy and ArcelorMittal.
Macarthur is resisting the AUD 15.66 a share offer, which includes Macarthur's final dividend. Macarthur considers the offer too low and is due to respond to it by September 1.
