<p>A hedge fund analyst for a $1 billion NYC hedge fund reached out to me to discuss my bullish GNC pieces published exclusively on SA.</p> <p>He has an impeccable education, and professional background and he shared his 16-page in-depth research report published on SumZero.</p> <p>It is pretty cool that the Seeking Alpha platform and distribution is increasing such that Tier 2 hedge funds are reading pieces.</p> <p>We debate the bull and bear points, over the phone, and I came away unmoved and unconvinced by his arguments.</p>
