Temasek Holdings has sold off half its ill-timed investment in Merrill Lynch - or about 87m shares, according to a mutual funds report on institutional trades on US stocks.

The online report, MFFAIRS (Mutual Fund Facts About Individual Stocks), reported it sold off 86,949,594 shares (50%), leaving a current holdings of 86,949,594 shares (50%), according to the filings made public.

The report gave no exact date or price of the sale.

(Update: Making no reference to Mffairs reported sale, aTemasek source says its ML shareholding has remained unchanged at 86.9m since March. See accompanying story).

Neither has there been any confirmation from Temasek, which had paid US$48 a share last year. http://www.mffais.com/newsarticles/2008-07-22/2473637-211738.html

Last week Merrill Lynch was traded at $31.

Did Temasek made any official statement to deny it? If so, where can I find it online?

I really hope this is a false alarm, it pains me each time I see Singapore loses money!

Temasek has upped their stakes in ML, bringing their total commitment to about 10%.
