A huge merger between commodities giants Glencore and Xstrata was thrown into doubt Wednesday after the sovereign wealth fund of Qatar, Xstrata's second-largest shareholder, opposed the deal's terms.
Qatar Holdings (QH) said in a statement to the London Stock Exchange that "whilst it sees merit in a combination of the two companies, it is seeking improved merger terms."
Both Switzerland-based Glencore and Xstrata are listed in London.
