Third Point Increases Baxter Holdings

Earlier this week, we highlighted how Dan Loeb's hedge fund Third Point disclosed a new activist stake in Baxter (BAX).  Third Point just filed an amended 13D and indicates their position size is now even larger.

They now own 9.6% of the company with over 52.5 million shares.  This is up from the 37.92 million shares they disclosed just a few days ago.

Third Point is seeking two board seats in order to help select a new CEO.
