A Hedge Fund That’s Also a Newspaper

Apr 03, 2024 at 02:06 am

A hedge fund named Hunterbrook is also a newspaper, essentially combining the practices of an activist short-selling hedge fund with media. Like Hindenburg Research, Hunterbrook investigates companies, finds issues, shorts them, and then publishes its findings to draw attention to any problems. However, Hunterbrook's news site is supposedly independent of its hedge fund, aiming to build credibility and readership to amplify its impact on stock prices.

We talked in November about Hunterbrook, a hedge fund that is also a newspaper. These are mostly tough economic times for the news industry, and Hunterbrook hit upon a differentiated media business model:

One way to think of this business model is that Hunterbrook is essentially an activist short-selling hedge fund, like Hindenburg Research: It investigates companies, finds problems, shorts the companies, and then noisily publishes its investigation to draw attention to the problems. But whereas Hindenburg is straightforwardly a short-selling firm, Hunterbrook’s news site is at least theoretically independent of its hedge fund, and if it publishes enough good general news then perhaps it can become more widely read and trusted — and have more stock-price impact — than a pure hedge fund.
