Don't call it a comeback; AllianceBernstein [profile] has been here for years.

Actually, calling it a comeback probably makes sense. As Barron's reports, the New York City-based mutual fund shop is finally making moves to recover from losses in the 2008 financial crisis.

Barron's makes special note of the high-performing AllianceBernstein High Income fund, which is beating rivals.

"We're making great progress in repositioning our firm for a strong future," says CEO Peter Kraus to Barron's.

The article, written by Barron's reporter Steve Garmhausen, details just how the shop fell so far — bad bets under a former CEO led to massive outflows of money, including one fund which has shrunk from $13.1 billion to $700 million since 2007.
