What's a 'small shareholder' then and what's that got to do with it?
You don't have to own shares directly to be reliant on the dividends paid to private pension funds and very many ordinary people are in that situation never having bought shares in their lives. Do they not enter your mind either or are they fair game? It's another of those stereotypes which seeks to portray all shareholders as rich cigar smoking, caviar eating and champagne quaffing fat cats.
