A New Announcement!
Hindenburg Research has recently taken its Twitter handle to make an announcement that another big one is coming. This has only created chaos among the people and the media as no one knows what it could be.
- The Adani Group Report has already created turmoil in the global and Indian economy.
- The new report could be on anything, but the Research will mainly focus on corporate bodies, so share market people are now tense to see whether their investment is at risk.
Main Focus
Hindenburg Research is a Limited Liability Company(LLC) founded by Nathan Anderson in 2017 and is based in New York City and is primarily focused on activist “short-selling activities.”
The company, named after the 1937 Hindenburg disaster to mark it as an avoidable tragedy triggered by humans, produces public reports on its website to reveal corporate fraudulence and malfeasance. Adani Group, Nikola, Clover Health, Kandi, and Lordstown Motors have been some of the companies whose practices have been exposed through such reports. Moreover, they use their reports to explain the benefits of short-selling and how it mitigates fraud, thus protecting investors before the report is made public.
Hindenburg Research carries out a thorough investigation of their target company over a period of six months, examining both public and internal records, as well as gaining insights from key personnel.
Once completed, this report is then shared with Hindenburg’s exclusive partners. Based on their investigations, an informed decision is reached, leading Hindenburg and their partners to establish a short position in the target company.
Should the share price of the company fall, Hindenburg reaps the rewards.

Nikola Corporation Report
- In September 2020, Hindenburg Research issued a report regarding the Nikola Corporation, which contained claims that the corporation was a scam of various falsehoods, leading back to its creator, Trevor Milton.
- Subsequently, Nikola’s stock prices significantly decreased by 40%, which caused a Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) inquiry to be established. Although Milton initially began denying the claims, his resignation as Executive Chairman soon occurred, and he was convicted of wire and securities fraud in the end.
- In November 2020, Nikola publicly acknowledged that comprehensive financial repercussions had been suffered due largely to the Hindenburg Report.

In January 2023, Hindenburg issued a statement expressing their short positions in India’s Adani Group and raised concerns regarding their debt and accounting practices. They subsequently released a report alleging that the Adani Group had been engaged in “stock manipulation and accounting fraud” for a prolonged period.
Following the report’s publication, Adani Group’s share prices experienced a sharp decline. In a subsequent article, The Guardian reported that Hindenburg asserted that if the Adani Group felt their report was inaccurate, they could pursue legal action.
