ni-co Posted February 14, 2014 Share Posted February 14, 2014 Weird... http://www.valuewalk.com/2014/02/einhorns-greenlight-capital-sue-seeking-alpha-blogger/ I think this lawsuit is more about scaring people with insider knowledge not to blog about it and maybe also finding these leaks.

Guest Posted February 15, 2014 Share Posted February 15, 2014 How often do managers request a "Confidential Treatment" exclusion? Is it just for the really big funds? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yup. A statistician friend who does algorithmic modeling and trading mistakenly infringed their intellectual property rights to the name, Greenlight, in a similar LOB. Naturally , he got a strong cease and desist letter from Greenlight's lawyer. I advised him not to lawyer up, but to simply send them a letter agreeing to change the name. That was satisfactory, and the matter was resolved without legal action One has to object when there is something amiss or a company can lose intellectual property rights or other standing in the legal system.

jschembs Posted February 15, 2014 Share Posted February 15, 2014 How often do managers request a "Confidential Treatment" exclusion? Is it just for the really big funds? Probably more often than we think. I'm fairly certain I recall Buffett requesting the same treatment when he built his stake in IBM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably more often than we think. I'm fairly certain I recall Buffett requesting the same treatment when he built his stake in IBM. Yeah, I remember reading about that, too, I think. I'm curious as if the not-yet-household names also have that option. If so, that somewhat hurts looking through the 13Fs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gfp Posted February 15, 2014 Share Posted February 15, 2014 A 13-f will always indicate to the public that confidential information has been omitted if it has. So at least you know when something is omitted, and it can't be confidential for very long usually. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
