From Barron's 7-9-07:
Each week Barron's has a 13D Filings column. 13Ds are filed when a fund (usually an activist hedge fund) accumulates more than 5% of a firm and is planning on pushing for change (e.g.a sale of the company, sale of certain assets, a share buyback, or a share dividend) to unlock value.
See Hate list below where funds filed 13Ds showing a new decrease in particular positions.
