• EZJ.L is trading approximately 4.5% up at $564 today, extending a strong rally from the $504 area.
  • The surge is primarily driven by the news that easyJet's board rejected a fourth takeover proposal of £6.50 per share from US investment firm Castlelake on June 25, 2026.
  • This latest rejection follows several previous non-binding bids by Castlelake, which have acted as significant company-specific catalysts for easyJet's stock performance.
