"The Turnaround Tactician is Maureen Nevin Duffy's new vehicle to report on activist or relational investors. These are typically "value" investors who don't buy and wait. They buy and use their governance know-how to turn companies around by unlocking that value, sometimes working with management, sometimes pushing back. Want to know what Relational Investors, Providence Capital, and others are up to? Duffy is the closest we have to a journalist on the front lines of corporate governance investing. She gives you the straight scoop and we can't wait to see her latest venture take off. Click here to see a sample issue. Then click on Buy Now; you won't be disappointed." -- Jim McRitchie, Publisher, Corporate Governance Network - www.CorpGov.net

Investing with the Activists

A growing body of research is finding a link between corporate governance activism and share value. Independent journalist Maureen Nevin Duffy, formerly editor of the Corporate Governance Fund Report, is now tracking gains achieved by some of the large corporate governance investors who undertake the heavy lifting. Duffy's new "Turnaround Tactician" tracks the holdings of large active investors and their changing share values. The proactive investors usually take positions in undervalued companies with the intention of turning them around; hence, the title.
