There may be some debate as to whether activist shareholders are good for the long-term health of companies, but there is no debating their results. In 2012, 2013, and 2014, activist investment strategies returned 9.3%, 19.2%, and 8.5% respectively per year. While new activist positions may not be moving the needle quite as much as they once were, the market still values activist involvement in companies.
