Cleanaway (ASX:CWY) share price swept up in >$2bn acquisition rumour
The Cleanaway Waste Management Ltd (ASX: CWY) share price isn’t reacting much to rumours that it’s about to acquire its largest rival.
Shares in the waste management group dipped 1.3% to $2.21 in after lunch trade as the S&P/ASX 200 Index (Index:^AXJO) gave up a similar amount.
