There has been a fair amount of feedback on the clip below from The Macro Show yesterday morning. Positive and negative. The negative feedback misunderstood our intentions and our actions. See video clip below for additional clarity.
For the record, throughout much of 2022, Frank Wilson (AKA "@wifeyalpha") has been spinelessly disparaging Hedgeye from a dark world of anonymity.
To be clear:
- Frank Wilson (AKA "wifeyalpha") published proprietary Hedgeye content without permission. We're not okay with that. Nor is the law.
- Frank Wilson forged a campaign of false and disparaging attacks on Hedgeye and its employees, under the mistaken belief he would not be held accountable because the identity of "wifeyalpha" could not be discovered. He was wrong. The law is clear on this as well.
- Hedgeye did not "doxx" Frank Wilson, nor his wife. We identified the name of the owners of these Twitter handles. We did not furnish personal details (eg phone number, home address, email address, etc). We have that information, but we provided none of it.
- Hedgeye remains committed to our core principles of transparency, accountability and trust. When people act poorly in our industry, we believe they should not be afforded the benefit of disguise and anonymity.
