Hindenburg Investigation

Use this skill to apply Hindenburg Research-style judgment.

When To Use

Use this skill when the user asks for:

  • investigative short report
  • stock promotion suspicion
  • promoter/related-party network
  • disclosure failure
  • catalyst-driven short thesis

Trigger phrases include Hindenburg, investigative short, stock promotion, promoter network, disclosure failure, related party short.

Do Not Use When

  • Another investor skill fits the setup better.
  • Critical primary evidence is unavailable.
  • The user wants guaranteed returns or unbounded risk.
  • The request is generic chatter with no decision.

Inputs Needed

  • Company, startup, token, report target, or market context
  • Primary documents, product data, user/revenue evidence, or research materials
  • Time horizon, capital structure, and risk constraints
  • Valuation or round pricing if sizing/commitment is requested

Process

  1. Identify the public story and who promotes it.
  2. Map related parties, promoters, and cash/equity incentives.
  3. Build a numbered evidence chain.
  4. Define catalyst, legal/disclosure angle, short structure, and invalidation.

Output Format

Guardrails

  • Do not force conviction without evidence.
  • Do not ignore incentives, structure, or liquidity/risk constraints.
  • Separate facts, assumptions, and judgment.
  • Do not present this as financial advice.
