Here's a statement of the obvious: The opinions expressed here are those of the participants, not those of the Mutual Fund Observer. We cannot vouch for the accuracy or appropriateness of any of it, though we do encourage civility and good humor.
FYI: The activist investors of Wall Street — who often buy stakes in companies and lobby for change — are an increasingly powerful force. Sometimes these investors achieve nearly all their goals, like shaking up a board, and sometimes they earn huge profits. Other times, they achieve their goals and still suffer losses — or they fall short of their goals and still make profits.
