Voya Financial edged higher by 2.3% after a report of informal takeover interest. The outreach is said to be informal, and there are no ongoing talks, according to a Semafor report that cited people familiar with the matter. Neither management nor the company's board is looking to do a deal. Principal Financial was one of the parties that expressed interest earlier this year, but nothing came of the approach. Principal did not return Semafor's request for comment, and Voya declined to comment.
