WASHINGTON (HedgeWorld.com) - The United States Supreme Court heard arguments Wednesday [Jan. 18] in a case it might use to deprive states of the authority to create a class-action cause of action for persons induced to retain (i.e. to refrain from the sale of) certain securities on the basis of allegedly fraudulent statements. The issue is of great importance because, 31 years ago, in Blue Chip Stamps v. Manor Drug Stores, the Supreme Court held that only actual securities transactions could create an implied right to a private cause of action in federal court. Someone who is induced by a misstatement to refrain from selling a stock has not committed an actual transaction, and therefore does not acquire a right to bring a federal lawsuit.

It is undoubtedly the case that, in many of the securities class action lawsuits that investors have filed against financial institutions due to their losses in the wake of the recent financial crisis, plaintiffs will be able to point to statistically significant and substantial price drops associated with firm-specific disclosures of writedowns and losses associated with securities whose value has been negatively impacted, perhaps dramatically so, by the downturn in the real estate market. In Part II, the authors begin by briefly discussing the context in which much of the securities class action litigation against financial institutions is occurring. Part III then discusses in detail why the foreseeability of the housing market downturn is of great importance in assessing the legal so...
