don't see kind of retraction very often

NEW YORK, July 13 (Reuters) - Loeb Partners Corp on Friday retracted a statement made in a filing earlier in the day stating that Mercer Insurance Group
should either sell itself or completely liquidate.

"The statement was inadvertent and does not reflect Loeb's current position regarding the company," Loeb said in its latest filing.

Loeb said it regretted the error and had refiled a document with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission to reflect its proper intentions.
