Shares in BP increased almost 7 percent in early trade on Monday as an Elliott Management fund protection activist for a raised hope for a shock in the oil major in the war.
The size of Elliott’s shares has not been discovered, but its involvement in the BP, which was first reported on Saturday, will talk about a group strategy adjustment and a shock of its board.
