On December 29, 2021, the SEC charged Medallion and its President and COO, Andrew Murstein, “with illegally engaging in two schemes in an effort to reverse the company’s plummeting stock price.” Specifically, they had “engaged in illegal touting by paying Ichabod’s Cranium and others to place positive stories about the company on various websites, including Huffington Post, Seeking Alpha, and TheStreet.com.”
On this news, $MFIN fell 27% and lost over $53 million of its market capitalization, seriously damaging shareholders.
Considering all the information, investors might have grounds to suspect that Medallion failed to timely disclose company’s business setbacks, which consequently led to their losses.
