Activist investor Nelson Peltz has sold his entire stake in Disney , a person familiar with the matter tells CNBC. Peltz sold all of his Disney stock at roughly $120 dollars a share, the person said, making about $1 billion on the position. The exit comes weeks after Peltz's Trian Partners lost a proxy battle at Disney in early April as shareholders reelected the company's full slate of board nominees. Peltz had long taken issue with Disney governance. "We are proud of the impact we have had in refocusing this Company on value creation and good governance," Trian said in a statement following the April shareholder vote.
