Tyco (TYC) Shares Pare Gains as United Tech (UTX) Financing Was Well Below $20B; Goodrich (GR), Rockwell (COL) Could Be More Likely Candidates

September 16, 2011 1:46 PM EDT
After surging as much as 8 percent earlier Friday on takeover chatter, shares of Tyco International (NYSE: TYC) have now given up a portion of the gains following reports from CNBC's David Faber which suggest recent financing at United Technologies (NYSE: UTX) is not for Tyco.

A source close to Faber said the financing was well below $20 billion, and thus likely puts Tyco out of reach.

Consequently, shares of both Goodrich (NYSE: GR) and Rockwell Collins (NYSE: COL) moved to session highs following the report from Faber.

Tyco shares last traded at $43.84, up 3.4 percent from Thursday's closing price. Shares of Goodrich and Rockwell Collins are up 5.9 percent and 10.4 percent, respectively.
