    Good, the only thing activists have proven they can do for businesses in recent years is lose them billions of dollars and destroy their reputation. Hopefully more businesses catch on and we can get back to getting actually decent products again.

    Business decisions have to be made with logic only, not emotion. The two do not mix.

      I don’t think you understand what an activist investor is

      In this case Intel is worried their stock is low enough that a hedge fund will be able to influence management decisions. Emotions don’t play into it

      Seriously?? Protecting themselves from any consequences will mean they act in your best interest???
