I guess I am somewhat uneasy because I believe that shareholder activism can have unintended negative consequences.
Also- By "pledging" what would I/we be pledging to exactly?
Just not sure there are any good reasons to bring pressure to bear at this point in time. When I try and put together a list of requests for improving the chances of this investment I am hard-pressed to come up with many actions that are not already being undertaken which presumably would be the necessary next step in the activist process. After all- Why join forces if there is not some agenda to push?
Feel free to elaborate on the purpose of more formally gathering together our fellow retail investors in this manner. JMO
