John Fichthorn‘s Dialectic Capital Management recently filed a 13D with the SEC, reporting that it has sent two letters to the board of directors of Covisint Corp (NASDAQ:COVS). In the first letter, sent on May 27, Dialectic Capital Management nominated Mr. Fichthorn, Mr. Daniels, Mr. Howe, Mr. Mutch, and Mr. Rose for election to the board at the company’s upcoming annual meeting of shareholders. In the second letter, which was delivered on June 2, the fund revealed its worries with the management of the company, particularly regarding the company’s decision to postpone the declaration of its “Plan B” until days after the deadline for nominating director candidates for election to the board. Dialectic Capital Management is still willing to try to reach a settlement with the company that will be in the interests of all shareholders. The filing also revealed an increase in the fund’s stake, with it currently owning 2.21 million shares, which amass 5.5% of Covisint Corp’s shares, compared to 1.77 million shares the fund reported holding in its latest 13F filing for the end of March.

Should I put my money in Artificial Intelligence?
Here to answer that for us… and give away his No. 1 free AI recommendation… is 50-year Wall Street titan, Marc Chaikin.
Marc’s been a trader, stockbroker, and analyst. He was the head of the options department at a major brokerage firm and is a sought-after expert for CNBC, Fox Business, Barron’s, and Yahoo! Finance…
But what Marc’s most known for is his award-winning stock-rating system. Which determines whether a stock could shoot sky-high in the next three to six months… or come crashing down.
That’s why Marc’s work appears in every Bloomberg and Reuters terminal on the planet…
And is still used by hundreds of banks, hedge funds, and brokerages to track the billions of dollars flowing in and out of stocks each day.
He’s used this system to survive nine bear markets… create three new indices for the Nasdaq… and even predict the brutal bear market of 2022, 90 days in advance.
