Carl Icahn boosts his stake in Navistar to 17%


Adam Jeffery | CNBC

Carl Icahn raised his stake in truck maker Navistar to 17.02 percent as of Friday, according to a U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission filing.

That was up from the 16.61 percent stake in the company previously reported as of February 28.

Last week, Navistar reported a much wider-than-expected quarterly loss on continued industry weakness, but said its new product line positioned it well for an expected market rebound in the second half of 2017.
