What is the News?<\/b><\/h2>\n

Adani Group has issued a detailed rebuttal to the allegations of stock manipulation and accounting malpractices levelled by Hindenburg Research. It has dismissed all allegations and called the Hindenburg report as an attack on India and its independent institutions.<\/span><\/p>\n

What is Hindenburg Research?<\/b><\/h2>\n

Hindenburg Research is a company that specializes in forensic financial research.<\/span><\/p>\n

It especially looks for accounting irregularities; undisclosed related-party transactions; illegal\/ unethical business or financial reporting practices; and undisclosed regulatory, product, or financial issues in companies.<\/span><\/p>\n

What has the Hindenburg<\/b> Research report on Adani says?<\/b><\/h2>\n

Hindenburg Research said its two-year investigation has shown that the Adani group was involved in massive and \u201cbrazen stock manipulation\u201d and an \u201caccounting fraud scheme\u201d.<\/span><\/p>\n

Hindenburg, which has short-selling positions in Adani companies through US-traded bonds and non-Indian-traded derivative instruments, said key listed companies in the Adani group had \u201csubstantial debt\u201d which has put the entire group on a \u201cprecarious financial footing\u201d.<\/span><\/p>\n

What is Short selling?<\/b><\/h2>\n

\u201cBuy low, sell high\u201d is the traditional investment strategy in which one buys a stock or security at a particular price and then sells it when the price is higher, thereby booking a profit. This is referred to as a \u201clong position\u201d, and is based on the view that the price of the stock or security will appreciate with time.<\/span><\/p>\n

Short selling on the other hand is a trading strategy based on the expectation that the price of the security will fall. While fundamentally it is based on the \u201cbuy low, sell high\u201d approach, the sequence of transactions is reversed in short selling \u2014 to sell high first and buy low later. Also, in short selling, the trader usually does not own the securities he sells, but merely borrows them.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
