Hindenburg expands attack on Icahn's empire by shorting bonds and stocks.
TL;DR
Hindenburg Research has opened a short position in Icahn Enterprises bonds, days after accusing Carl Icahn of running "Ponzi-like" structures. The move comes as Icahn's firm posted a surprise first-quarter loss and disclosed that it had been contacted by US prosecutors. Icahn Enterprises did not address any of the key issues flagged in the May 2 report, according to Hindenburg. Shares of Icahn Enterprises are down nearly 40% since Hindenburg's report was first released earlier this month.
