Business Description
TrimTabs is an independent research service that publishes detailed daily coverage of global stock market liquidity--including mutual fund and exchange-traded fund flows—as well as withheld and non-withheld tax collections. Founded by Charles Biderman in 1990, TrimTabs provides institutional investors with trading strategies and investment insights. About twenty-five percent of the top fifty hedge funds in the world use its research for market timing.
TrimTabs’ perspective relies on the insight that stock prices are a function of supply and demand and have nothing to do with value. To track the supply of stock on both the U.S. stock market and on non-U.S. stock markets, TrimTabs uses proprietary techniques to collect data on cash takeovers, stock buybacks, new offerings, and insider trading. To track the demand for stock, TrimTabs measures the daily monetary flows into and out of mutual funds and exchange-traded funds and the monthly monetary flows into and out of hedge funds.

Famous quotes containing the words business and/or description:
“My business is words. Words are like labels,
or coins, or better, like swarming bees.”
—Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
“I was here first introduced to Joe.... He was a good-looking Indian, twenty-four years old, apparently of unmixed blood, short and stout, with a broad face and reddish complexion, and eyes, methinks, narrower and more turned up at the outer corners than ours, answering to the description of his race. Besides his underclothing, he wore a red flannel shirt, woolen pants, and a black Kossuth hat, the ordinary dress of the lumberman, and, to a considerable extent, of the Penobscot Indian.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
