  • Smith has remained a prolific activist investor even during the pandemic, calling for changes in Humana, Kohl’s, Mercury Systems, and others.

  • Starboard Value manages about $6.2 billion in assets, according to filings through the first quarter of 2020.
  • Price Action: CRM shares traded higher by 6.33% at $156.50 in the premarket on the last check Tuesday.
