Pfizer squandered its $40bn COVID windfall on overpriced M&A while delivering almost none of the 15 promised blockbusters; the Board must hold management accountable.

Engine argues Upwork is undervalued at ~6.5x EBITDA and that a refreshed board plus fixing the marketplace, focusing Enterprise, cutting bloat and aggressive buybacks unlocks substantial upside.
Autodesk, Inc. ADSK

Southwest Airlines LUV
Southwest has the worst margins of any major U.S. airline under a 74-year legacy leadership team; a new outside CEO, refreshed board and modernized commercial strategy can deliver a $49 share price, 77% upside.
CPI Property Group S.A. CPIPGR
CPI Property Group's luxury London transactions — same-day flips, offshore proxies, and uneconomic sales to PEPs — bear hallmarks of money laundering integration using bondholder funds.
The Walt Disney Company DIS
Disney's decade of underperformance stems from a board lacking focus and accountability; electing Peltz and Rasulo brings ownership mentality to fix succession, streaming economics and capital allocation.

Vivion Investments S.à.r.l.
Vivion's €1.44bn bond issuer is a multi-billion euro shell game — fabricated shareholder loans, inflated occupancy and fair value gains, and related-party rents enriching controlling shareholder Amir Dayan.
Sunrun RUN
Muddy Waters rebuts Sunrun's response: the 90% PPA-renewal assumption on 20-year-old panels is fantasy, the $668M panel-removal liability is real, and RUN hides its tax basis.
Sunrun Inc. RUN
Sunrun's equity story rests on three shaky pillars — inflated subscriber values, abusive IRS tax-basis gaming, and fragile ABS — that together imply an 85% haircut to Net Earning Assets.
US Foods Holding Corp. USFD
Sachem Head owns 8.7% of US Foods and is running a proxy fight to install five directors who can close the Sysco margin gap and deliver ~100% upside.
Huntsman Corporation HUN
Huntsman failed all 2016 and 2018 Investor Day EBITDA and share-price promises

Huntsman Corporation HUN
Three consecutive Investor Days (2014, 2016, 2018) missed EBITDA targets by hundreds of millions
Danimer Scientific DNMR
DNMR is a post-SPAC bioplastics story whose 'sold-out' demand, $200M take-or-pay contracts, and $1 trillion TAM are misrepresentations — actual utilization is ~28% and Novomer is a Hail Mary.
Joyy Inc. YY
JOYY is a multibillion-dollar fraud: ~90% of YY Live and ~80% of Bigo revenue is fabricated via bots and gift roundtripping, and Baidu's pending $3.6bn acquisition is buying air.
NIO Inc. NIO
NIO trades at 17-18x NTM EV/Sales — double Tesla's multiple — as a Made-in-China Model Y near $41K threatens the ES6/EC6; Citron closes its 2018 long at a $25 price target.
MultiPlan Corp MPLN
MultiPlan is a financially-engineered SPAC corpse losing its biggest customer UHC to UHC's own competitor Naviguard; expect 35% revenue loss and 8x+ leverage by 2022.
Empire State Realty Trust ESRT
Empire State Realty Trust is uniquely exposed to NYC's 'existential hurricane' — COVID, WFH, SALT cap, and WeWork's collapse crush demand while observation-deck revenue vanishes, driving shares substantially lower.
eHealth Inc. EHTH
eHealth books three years of Medicare Advantage commissions upfront while true churn has spiked to 47%; corrected, every MA enrollee loses $135-$402 — a cash-incinerating stock promotion.
Peloton Interactive PTON
Peloton trades at 2,286% above peers on EV per subscriber; once a cannibalizing app, undifferentiated hardware, and a March lockup wave hit, the stock collapses to $5.
Ferrovial FER

Canadian Pacific Railway CP
TCI, owner of ~8% of Canadian Pacific, demands the railroad close its CDP climate-disclosure gap versus peers CN and UNP and adopt a credible science-based transition plan.
Airbus AIR
TCI, a 1.5% Airbus shareholder since 2012, demands stronger climate disclosure, an A-grade CDP score, and Airbus leadership in mandating low-carbon synthetic aviation fuels — or TCI will vote against directors.
Alphabet Inc. GOOGL
TCI, a 0.6% Alphabet holder, commends Alphabet's A-grade CDP disclosure and codifies its stewardship stance: full CDP reporting, Paris-aligned transition plans, or votes against directors and auditors.
ANTA Sports Products 2020.HK
ANTA's largest 'third-party' supplier and its 'self-operated' online stores are secretly controlled by an ANTA employee, so reported margins and Fila's numbers cannot be trusted.
ANTA Sports Products 2020.HK
Muddy Waters Part 4 rebuts ANTA's responses — management has lied about owning all Fila stores, the Shanghai Fengxian disposal, and distributor independence, confirming the underlying fraud.

Bristol-Myers Squibb BMY
BMY's $91B Celgene deal bets the company on a REVLIMID patent cliff and pipeline requiring 10 blockbusters in 8 years — shareholders should vote no and pursue a standalone Amgen-style transformation.

Vivendi's control of TIM destroyed 54% of shareholder value

Inogen, Inc. INGN
Inogen's growth story rests on a fabricated TAM sourced from a plagiarism-riddled WinterGreen report; real market is shrinking, peak sales arrive 2019-2020, target $46 (-67%).
Dollar Tree, Inc. DLTR
Dollar Tree is deeply undervalued because Family Dollar is a failed acquisition and the $1 price ceiling is a self-imposed cap; selling Family Dollar and testing multi-price points unlocks $150/share.
QEP Resources, Inc. QEP
QEP's core-of-the-core Permian assets are stranded in a broken public-company wrapper; Elliott offers $8.75/share cash — a 44% premium — to deliver certain value through sale.
Cars.com Inc. CARS
Starboard, a ~10% holder, warns Cars.com's board that serial guide-downs must end with credible 2019-2021 targets, a third independent director, and — absent improvement — management change or a sale.
Dell Technologies (Class V / DVMT tracking stock) DVMT
Dell's $109 buyout of the DVMT tracker is really $90 — a 42% discount engineered to transfer $11bn from public holders to Michael Dell and Silver Lake. Vote no.
Tesla, Inc. TSLA
After five years short, Citron reverses on Tesla: Model 3 is dominating luxury and EV segments, Munro confirms 30% margins, and worst-case math yields $599/share.
Starbucks SBUX
Dominant global coffee brand trading at 22x forward P/E vs. 26x historical average
Manulife Financial Corporation MFC
Muddy Waters is short Manulife because a Saskatchewan verdict due by year-end could force MFC to accept unlimited deposits at a guaranteed 4%+ rate — an unhedgeable bleed its own expert admits could cause insolvency.
Campbell Soup Company CPB
Campbell's incumbent board delivered 19% TSR vs 306% S&P over 20 years; replace the entire board with Third Point's Independent Slate to unlock $52-58/share via turnaround, breakup, or sale.
Wayfair W
Wayfair's unit economics are deteriorating — loss per new customer nearly doubled to $19 — while the stock defies gravity; Citron is re-shorting with a first stop at $100.
TAL Education Group TAL
TAL Education's core Peiyou business is shrinking, not 'healthy' as CFO Rong Luo claims; under every reasonable model TAL's FY2018 Q3-Q4 disclosures fail to reconcile.
TAL Education Group TAL
TAL's own Peiyou Q3 disclosures, common-sized, mathematically imply offline enrollment declined YoY — contradicting the growth narrative and signaling fabricated results.
TAL Education Group TAL
TAL is a real business with fake financials: two asset-parking transactions inflated FY2016-FY2018 pre-tax profits by $153M (28.4%) while Deloitte China was starved of audit hours.
SandRidge Energy SD
SandRidge trades at a ~45% discount to its own PV-10 because the post-bankruptcy 'bankruptcy board' destroys value via dilutive deals; replace it with Icahn's slate to run a real sale process.
Taubman Centers, Inc. TCO
Taubman's persistent peer underperformance stems from a family-entrenched board and dual-class structure; electing Litt and collapsing Series B shares unlocks value common shareholders have been denied.
athenahealth, Inc. ATHN
Elliott offers $160/share cash for athenahealth — a 27% premium valuing the company at ~$6.9bn — arguing chronic execution failures make going private the only path to realizing its HCIT potential.
