FRANKFURT, July 6 (Reuters) - Deutsche Post has sold its entire stake in Deutsche Bank, the logistics group said on Monday, ending a brief period when it was one of the bank's biggest shareholders. Post Chief Executive Frank Appel said in a statement that the move cleared the way for the German post office turned global logistics group to concentrate on its core business.
Deutsche Post had briefly got a stake of as much as 8 percent in Deutsche Bank as part of a deal to sell the German retail bank Deutsche Postbank.
The postal group said that the Deutsche Bank shares it had owned were now in the hands of a number of investors.
Deutsche Bank stock slipped 2.6 percent, while Post shares were also trading down 1.5 percent at 0934 GMT.
