Erroneous Knowledge

(Port Import/ Export Reporting Service database) Panjiva, Zepol, and ImportGenius Zepol was acquired in 2015 by Datamyne and is integrated with ImportGenius which provides data on ports, cargo and international trade. A bit of a hefty price at $199 for US data. Panjiva is obviously an India based data provider. It deals with global market intelligence with convenient lookup features for companies. There is a partnership between Panjiva and S&P Global to provide comprehensive supply chain intelligence. You can look up details on the Tata Group conglomerate which is a sprawling organization.

A wonderful story about Glaucus research group is at https://www.latrobe.edu.au/news/articles/2018/opinion/truth,-weaponised-short-sellers.

Nothing interesting showed up in the whois lookup because of the privacy redaction.
