TheStreet launches daily newsletter covering activist investors

The Deal, which is part of TheStreet.com, has launched a new daily newsletter called the Activist Daily.

Led by senior editor, Ron Orol, the newsletter will cover the surging activity in activism and corporate governance in both the U.S. and Europe. It will cover the latest strategies in proxy fight insurgencies, and report on legislative and regulatory issues facing the industry.

“We will bring breaking news in the activist world to readers on a daily basis,” said Orol, senior editor at The Deal, “including articles predicting what to expect next when it comes to existing insurgencies, features identifying emerging U.S. and global trends affecting activists and M&A, and our unique commentary on potential activist targets.”

The newsletter will include analysis of companies that could soon be targeted by activists.

The Deal will continue to publish its weekly Activist Report.
