Post# of 103014
AQR Capital Management, LLC which serves as the investment manager to the AQR Diversified Arbitrage Fund , an open-end registered investment company took a 6% position in TMPS in February 2017.
Here is info on AQR Diversified Arbitrage Fund straigh from their website.
Investment Objective
Seeks long-term absolute (positive) returns. Fund closed to new investors.
Arbitrage strategies seek to exploit mispricings in markets. They do this by looking for two related assets that are trading at different prices, then buy the cheaper one and "short" — that is, borrow and sell — the more expensive one. The difference between the prices is the expected profit of the trade. AQR's Diversified Arbitrage Fund invests in three primary arbitrage strategies:
Merger Arbitrage — consists of buying shares of the target company in a proposed merger, and hedging the exposure to the acquirer by shorting the stock of the acquiring company
Event-Driven Investments — involves various corporate actions where very similar assets begin to trade at different prices (e.g., the different share classes of a public company's stock)
Over time, we seek to balance the Fund's exposure equally among the three while maintaining the ability to make tactical tilts based on each strategy's conditional attractiveness.
AQR Diversified Arbitrage has over $490 mill in assets under their control
