THREAD: Do the people on Reddit's #WallStreetBets who are buying Gamestop, AMC, and other stocks have any legal liability to do so?
By buying up Gamestop and AMC stock, they caused the price to shoot way up in a short period of time.
So did they engage in "market manipulation," as some people on social media have claimed? Could they get in trouble with the SEC, which is "watching" the matter, or go to prison?
I've been discussing this with a friend who is a former SEC attorney, and this looks like something we've seen before.
Whether those people have liability turns on whether they make false or misleading statements.
If the argument is that the *trades themselves* are manipulation, that will be a very difficult claim to make.
Those claims are very challenging to make, and in this case, I don't see a viable claim **based solely on what the public knows now.**
But if this is really just a group of people who decided they want to buy a stock, it's not manipulation.
