Enbridge Shares Slide 3% After $2.55 Billion Tallgrass Crude Business Deal

Summary
Enbridge fell nearly 3% in premarket trading after announcing a $2.55 billion acquisition of Tallgrass Energy's crude transportation business.
The drop came even as the deal expands Enbridge's energy transportation footprint, making the acquisition itself the clear driver of the stock move.
The move stood out in a mixed premarket session that also saw sharp declines in copper miners, American Eagle and Cooper Companies, while AeroVironment and Novartis gained.
The reaction suggests investors are weighing the cost and integration risks of the Tallgrass purchase more heavily than its immediate strategic benefits.
