Saks Global sends its bankruptcy plan to a creditor vote

Saks Global won court approval to send its bankruptcy plan to creditors, a key step toward a restructuring that would wipe out existing equity and transfer control to senior lenders. The filing signals severe distress for current shareholders and highlights a creditor-led recapitalization process. The news is negative for equity holders, though the impact is likely limited to the name itself rather than the broader market.
