Anglo American Plc is the top pick among European M&A specialists to be a potential target in 2025 as a renewed appetite for deals sweeps through the mining industry.
Anglo, which last year rebuffed an approach from bigger rival BHP Group, was voted for 12 times out of responses from 50 merger and acquisition experts surveyed by Bloomberg News from Jan. 6 to Jan. 17. Anglo shares slumped on Monday after a Financial Times report that BHP is reluctant to renew its takeover bid.
