  • Shares of Thyssenkrupp AG jumped the most in years as investors focused on the German steelmaker's plans to conduct an initial public offering.

The article from BNN Bloomberg discusses the significant rise in Thyssenkrupp AG's stock value, which soared by as much as 11% following a report by Bloomberg News.
