RE:RE:RE:Activist investorsAgreed. Management here are.pretty sharp though, I could see them doing that on their own.

Have been in a few stocks where activist investors have stepped in when the share price was unjustly crushed and management was slow to act. SRV.UN has been a big winner for me after a power struggle ensued, now resolved and everyone happy.
Just recently Sime Armoyan of Armco Capital stepped into MRT.UN, another stock I own, to challenge Rai Sahi who has been slowly gobbling up shares while unjustly keeping the distribution low.
But other than taking a position at cheap prices, what would be the activist investor's 'activism'? IE what needs correcting here? Certainly not an increase in distributions.
