Cleanaway Waste Management Ltd (ASX:CWY) has quelled speculation of it being taken over by Seven Group Holdings Ltd (ASX: SVW), after media speculation on the acquisition sent the waste disposal giant’s shares soaring 15 percent to $3 – the highest in several years.

The buzz was sparked by a Bloomberg article which suggested that Seven had been seeking financing for a takeover proposal.
