All 12 papers had one thing in common: Brian M Lucey, Professor of International Finance and Commodities, Trinity College Dublin — the #1 ranked economics and business school in Ireland — as a co-author. 

Lucey published 56 papers in 2025, one paper every 6.5 days. Lmao. 

Lucey has published 44 papers in Finance Research Letters alone, an Elsevier journal he edited.

What a shitbird.

People get put on as co-authors for relatively minor contributions. Being coauthor on a lot of papers doesn't mean much.

The second part is the actual problem.

In the deep dark reaches of the mists of time I once mused on entering the life of an academic. I didn’t think I would enjoy the inevitable regular tsunamis of bullshit. I was not wrong.
