Peltz's Trian Fund Trims Family Dollar Stake

Nelson Peltz's activist investment firm Trian Fund Management has filed an amended 13D with the SEC regarding their position in Family Dollar (FDO).  Per the filing, Trian now owns 2.07% of the company with over 2.36 million shares.

This means they've reduced their position size by over 6 million shares since the end of the third quarter.  The filing was made due to activity on January 26th. 

FDO recently agreed to a deal with Dollar Tree (DLTR) and Trian has already reduced its investment.
