TrimTabs History

In 1990, Charles Biderman founded TrimTabs, focusing on short ideas.

TrimTabs Investment Research is the only independent research service that
publishes detailed daily coverage of U.S. stock market liquidity, including mutual
funds and exchange traded funds (ETFs), as well as weekly withheld income and
employment tax collections.

TrimTabs’ unique perspective relies on the insight that price is a function
of supply and demand and has nothing to do with value. Thanks to proprietary
Web spiders and aggregation methods, TrimTabs tracks cash takeovers, stock
buybacks, new offerings, and insider trading in the U.S., Canada, Europe, and
Asia. It also tracks the daily flows of mutual funds and ETFs in the U.S. About 25%
of the world's top 50 hedge funds use TrimTabs research for market timing.
