Icahn holds stake in Amylin, drops Macy's and CSX

NEW YORK (AP) - Billionaire investor Carl Icahn reported a new stake in
Amylin Pharmaceuticals Inc. as of March 31 but no longer owned shares of
department store chain Macy's Inc. and railroad operator CSX Corp., according to
a quarterly regulatory filing Thursday.
In the Securities and Exchange Commission filing, Icahn reported holding 6.3
million shares of Amylin, a San Diego-based biopharmaceutical company. The
investor had reported stakes in Macy's and CSX and in his fourth-quarter
regulatory filing but did not report holdings in this most recent report.
He also no longer holds shares of insurance provider Unum Group, Canadian
energy company Compton Petroleum Corp. and insurance and investment manager
Lincoln National Corp.
In addition, Icahn no longer reported owning a stake in "Grand Theft Auto"
publisher Take-Two Interactive Software Inc. Electronic Arts Inc. made a $2
billion offer to buy the video game publisher in February. The bid expires
Friday. Take-Two has said the price is too low.
The investor also reported boosting his stakes in Biogen Idec Inc., Enzon
Pharmaceuticals Inc., Forestar Real Estate Group Inc., Guaranty Financial Group
Inc. and Motorola Inc. during the quarter. He reduced his holdings in Perry
Ellis International Inc., J.C. Penney Co. and Williams Cos.
