English term or phrase: activist hedge funds
Hedge funds exacerbated the shift to small stocks. In 1982 they were minor players. But they took off in the late '90s and especially during this decade. Their superior information-gathering allows them to spot profit opportunities in small companies that aren't widely followed. The ability of so-called activist hedge funds to transform small companies by taking big positions and agitating for change has been another lure. Perhaps most important, hedge fund traders are trend followers, traveling in packs into and out of asset classes. Right now the trend favors small stocks. "If you were to stick a gun to my head," says Bear Stearns' O'Shaughnessy, "I'd say small caps will keep beating for 20 years."

While some hedge fund managers take a high-profile role in pushing companies to improve performances, Breeden's fund will "seek quiet reform where possible and become as actively involved as necessary to achieve desired transformations and prevent value-diminishing corporate actions," according to the marketing materials.
