In my previous post, I highlighted over a dozen listed activist investor vehicles (some at v interesting discounts) you can invest in. Additionally, you might also want to look at individual company situations – as I commented about activists: ‘Use them wisely (and profitably) to cherry pick and/or endorse your conviction stocks.’ Here are some interesting examples:
