マーケットチャット：オークツリーが関税払い戻し契約の破棄をめぐりBJ'sを提訴

By

-- ブルームバーグ通信は火曜日、オークツリー・キャピタル・マネジメントがBJ'sホールセール・クラブ・ホールディングス（BJ）を提訴したと報じた。オークツリーは、BJ'sが約2900万ドル相当の関税還付請求権の売却契約を一方的に破棄したと主張している。 オークツリーは、BJ'sが当初約2000万ドルで請求権を売却することに合意していたものの、その後、請求額が高騰したため契約を破棄したと訴えている。同社はこの行為を「違法かつ悪意のある売主の後悔」と表現している。 この訴訟は、ドナルド・トランプ大統領が過去に導入した複数の関税措置を違憲とした米最高裁判所の判決を受け、関税還付請求額が急増している中で発生した。 オークツリーによると、契約は最終的な締結を残すのみで交渉が完了していたにもかかわらず、BJ'sが契約破棄条項を発動したという。 オークツリーとBJ'sは、MTニュースワイヤーズのコメント要請にすぐには応じなかった。 （マーケットチャッターのニュースは、世界中の市場専門家との会話から得られた情報に基づいています。この情報は信頼できる情報源に基づいていると考えられますが、噂や憶測が含まれている可能性があります。正確性は保証されません。）
