Investor activist

I have started a group on ticker talk called investor activist. Its ultimate goal is to get a voice and voting power into anual general meetings such that the interest of the small investor is taken care of. I would also like to get seats on the renumeration commitees of listed companies because that is a huge sourse of earnings loss. join and lets get cracking.

ya, this a great idea .. activist may spook some people .. but you collect proxies from private clients and arrive with a vote of note ?? check out the australian investors association .. they serioulsy powerful, sometimes have more then 10% of vote at an AGM ..

Fantastic idea. Most investors sit back and ignore AGM's. Own up how many of us have had a notifiction from OST about and AGM and we simply dont voice our opinions!

This is exactly the thing I've been looking for! The small investor needs a voice. John count me in for any help you may need getting this off the ground.

Power to the shareholders! An injury to one shareholder is an injury to ALL shareholders! (Hmm... Too much coffee methinks).

Make sure you register on ticker talk because nothing effective could ever be done through this forum alone...
