Elliott Investment Management, which has a history of bidding for companies in the US defense sector, has bought a sizable stake in Aerojet Rocketdyne Holdings Inc.
The Florida-based hedge fund said Monday it owned a 3.7% of Aerojet. While the investment is a passive one for now, the investment firm has made acquisitions of companies of a similar size in the sector. Last year it bought Cubic Corp, along with Veritas Capital while it also had unsuccessful takeover bid for Mercury Systems Inc.
