LONDON (Reuters) - Chinese online retailer JD.com said on Friday that it would not make an offer for British electricals group Currys days after US investor Elliott Advisors walked away from tabling a bid.
Currys shares, which slumped to a session low after the update, were down 6% at 55.4 pence by 1409 GMT.
"JD.com today confirms that, following careful consideration, it does not intend to make an offer for Currys," the company said.
