It's been two weeks since the Hindenburg report came out on January 24 and then rattled the Adani group. It has been hurting the Adani group¡¯s stocks as well as the net worth of the group¡¯s chairman Gautam Adani.
Barring a few days when some of the Adani group stocks managed to marginally recover, the conglomerate¡¯s stocks have been witnessing a bloodbath on most days.
Meanwhile, Gautam Adani--the world¡¯s third richest person before the Hindenburg report came out--now sits outside the world¡¯s top 20 richest list on Bloomberg Billionaire Index. And on Forbes's real-time rich list, Adani has slipped to the 17th position.
Last week, he also lost the title of being the world's richest Asian and Indian to Reliance Industries' Mukesh Ambani.
So clearly, Hindenburg's research has been hurting Adani in more ways than one.
So let us look back at the past two weeks and see how much wealth and market cap Gautam Adani and his companies have respectively lost ever since the Hindenburg research came out with allegations of accounting fraud, stock manipulation, and money laundering.
