No ChatGPT involved :)

Let's go! Image
Carl operates his money through a publicly-listed holding company. He holds an 85% stake.

This #hindenburgresearch report is a masterclass on how to assess a Holdco.

We are not in it for knowing whether its short attempt will be another success or not.

Top 7 insights👇
1. Always check the actual value of the reported investment

Hindenburg says Icahn overstated the value of his holdings by 22% Vs its current NAV.

CMP implies a 218% premium to NAV.🤯 Image

Things have gone from absolutely horrendous to utterly diabolical for coal giant #Adani. Here’s another thread of bad news that’s hit Adani’s climate-wrecking, forest-annihilating, village-displacing coal empire over the last few days.
#GautamAdani, whose Indian business empire is under pressure over fraud allegations, repaid a $1.1bn share-backed loan last week after facing a margin call of more than $500mn, according to four people with direct knowledge of the matter."

🚨: The #AdaniGroup has hired ‘#Wachtell’, one of the Wall Street's fiercest defense law firms to take on US short seller #HindenburgResearch, which accused the Indian conglomerate of stock manipulation and fraud.

It is the same firm that Elon Musk hired to fight Twitter.
The development comes as billionaire Gautam Adani remains focused on reassuring investors that his business empire has been built on a strong foundation and faces no financial risk.
“For decades, Wachtell has been among the most sought-after advisers by besieged corporate boards at some of the largest US companies trying to fend off activist investors or hostile takeovers,” the FT said in its article.

1. Mr. Shekhar Gupta is factually incorrect, morally wrong & lacking in journalistic courage
He defends gov & regulator’s inaction in view of the Adani exposé with a fanatic zeal calling it Good Capitalism. That term is evil at so many levels. Good Capitalism. Is Mr. Gupta
2. advocating for unbridled laissez-faire giving a free-hand for powerhouses to manipulate with common people’s trust & savings?

Mr. Gupta in the defence of his argument mounts a 5-pointer. Let’s look at each of these
3. Moral nature of Corruption with or w/o global interlinkages remains the same. What changes is the impact it can have on global economy or perhaps even the investment perception of the nation. On the former, Adani while a giant among the Indian businesses is not big enough to

1. Last yr, we mocked Truth of capital cronyism
A year before we mocked Truth on Covid mismanagement
Last 9yrs, we’ve made it a habit to mock Truth. From GST to Demo, from Farm Bills to Chinese incursions
Fortunately for us, Truth glitters brighter, more

2. it’s under attack. It’s not an opportunity that knocks but once. It is the light of knowledge that continues to fight darkness
Truth is used to all mocking. Long back it was crucified. It has been shot thrice. Truth-seekers were brandished with blasphemy. Truth survived & made Image
3. a wiser, better world
But when you see, feel Truth, embrace it. It needs your courage. Adani, Modi are trying to hide Truth. They’ve bought over or subdued the media. Rahul Gandhi continued to expose them. You didn’t believe him then. Now, it has reached international shores. Image

#AdaniGroup #hindenburgresearch

📍Hindenburg says Adani Group companies have shell companies in Mauritius managed by brother of Gautam Adani i.e. Vinod Adani who pumps in money & manupilates stock market prices
📍Shareholding of many Adani Group shows many of these companies listed as FIIs registered in Mauritius. MSCI index has already sought explanation from Adani Group on these disclosures. The same can be checked on Screener.
📍Adani Group Companies have high promoter holdings & in many companies these holdings are pledged. There is hardly any free float of shares and thus stocks are managed like rigged casinos.

#BillAckman is a very well respected name in the World of Finance and Hedge Funds. The fact that he actually bothered to comment on #AdaniGroup and #hindenburgresearch suggests that this Episode has become #Mainstream in US FINANCIAL Markets. What does it mean ?
#AdaniGroup #Hindenburg Report will become Main Stream Discussion in the Broad Rooms of all the Major Financial Institutions in the World, Investment Banks, Pension Fund, Sovereign Funds, Hedge Funds, Rating Agencies, ESG agencies, Bond Holders etc
For Now, Most International Banks, International Bond Holders and any intermediaries will PUT any decision Making on #AdaniGroup on Hold and will try and REDUCE EXPOSURE.
