Episode description

Activist short-sellers are known for their provactive short reports, designed to capture media attention and push the price of shares down. But Hindenburg Research's latest report - Roblox: Inflated Key Metrics For Wall Street And A Pedophile Hellscape For Kids - still felt a little extreme.

We unpack what Hindenburg are accusing Roblox of in today's episode of Equity Mates. We also cover:

• How one decision by Chinese policy-makers rippled through markets around the world
• America has seen its first drop in obesity rates in decades - no prizes for guessing why: Ozempic
• We answer of community question on ETF overlap
• What legendary investor Seth Klarman has in his portfolio
