The term "dawn raid" in business, is the
sudden and unexpected buying of a significant
proportion of a company's shares, usually as
a prelude to a takeover bid. The aim is to
prevent the target company from having time
to organize opposition to the takeover.
The term also refers to a police raid in the
early hours of the morning.
