Elliott Investment calls for special meeting for Southwest Airlines
SUMMARY: Elliott Investment Management is calling a special shareholder meeting for December 10 to propose replacing at least eight members of Southwest Airlines’ board of directors. This follows the hedge fund acquiring an 11% stake in the airline, which allows it to request the meeting.

Economists suggest that while changes are necessary, the effectiveness of Elliott’s proposals and the airline’s future direction will unfold during and after the meeting. Stakeholders should pay attention, as the outcomes could significantly impact employees and passengers alike.
