From the evidence you provide, it appears that Hindenburg's behaviour was outrageous.

Sounds like you should drop your policy of not trading in your own recommendations. If your research is that good and copied months later by Hindenburg, you should start investing in your own ideas. It won't impede the credibility of your research with your audience, I am sure.

Very disrespectful of Hindenburg. WTF happened to honor?

hindenburg seems determined to retain a short-seller scum reputation that the niche is damned with.

i doubt many of them have the integrity of edwin\bear cave level vetting.

Well said. Honor is another virtue that is disappearing. More Charlatans than ever. Good work, Edwin. Always appreciated.

I noticed that as well since I am on Hindenburgs mailing list. That’s hella shady, I won’t read them anymore

Apologies for just seeing this now, but I saw the Hindenburg note come across my quotron when they published. Back of my head I was thinking: no shit, Edwin’s been here for over a year! I had no idea how egregious the plagiarism was.

You work 10x harder than their entire team combined, and this just proves it. I’m sure Hindenburg’s institutional consulting clients would be very interested in getting the research from the REAL source.

I’ve made money on this trade several times, completely due to your research. Charge whatever you want, never ever unsubscribing.

Keep that head up; if it were me I would sue them, but I’m an incredibly petty person when it comes to stuff like this😂

Hello Edwin, i watched your interview in zer0stv, and it is obvious you put a lot of time and effort into your very detailed research. I'm a fan of people like Ralph Nader who have shown lots of integrity over time.

It is so bizarre and sad how shameless people are these days.

One thing i know is - you can't put a price on a clean conscience.

Keep up the good work!

That sucks. If I were Hindenburg, and going to remedy the situation, I would include a footnote after the quoted sections, and an inline note like this

(Bear Cave)

But what do you think? What is a good remedy? The objective is proper and frequent credit, and for readers to be able to find the source, right?

Hi Edwin. Thanks for your consistently high quality work. You are absolutely correct, this is plagiarism, from a journalistic standpoint. From a financial standpoint, for the vast majority of short sellers, it would might also be viewed as the heavy artillery, coming in to backup the scouts. An alliance of sorts, fighting a common enemy--corporate fraud and deception. It's admirable that you don't trade your views. At the same time, making the short case and trading the short case are two very different experiences. Might it be worthwhile opening a paper trading account? You might get a feel for it and it would simplify score keeping.

If they were interested in being allies they should have given attribution
