ICAHN’T BLOG FOR NOW

Carl “The Crusader” Icahn has holstered his blogging sword and is laying low for a while.

The billionaire investor surprised many by quietly gagging his own activist blog four months ago, following a year of trumpeting Icahn’s mission to shake up entrenched boardrooms.

Analyst Peter Cohan believes Icahn got cold feet after repeatedly hammering the legal system in Delaware about its protective walls around boards and management. “No doubt he’s done a cost-analysis and discovered he’ll have better returns from keeping his mouth closed until he gets his legislative agenda accomplished,” Cohan said.

Icahn countered that he’s not concerned about his recently-silent blog.

“We made a lot of important points about corporate governance, and we got a pretty good response,” Icahn told The Post. “We’ll be back in the fall and involved in the legislation discussion.”
