Pomerantz Law Firm Takes Action Against Edison International
A recent class action lawsuit has been filed by Pomerantz LLP against Edison International, following alarming reports suggesting potential securities fraud and other unlawful business practices involving the company's operations. Investors who have experienced losses related to their investment in Edison are urged to get involved.
Background of the Lawsuit
The lawsuit emerged after a series of catastrophic wildfires that began around January 7, 2025, wreaked havoc across the Los Angeles region. As reports surfaced that the wildfires, notably the Eaton Canyon Fire, may have been triggered by Edison’s power lines, the company faced significant stock price drops.
One pivotal moment occurred on January 9, when eyewitness accounts were publicized, revealing that the fire possibly started near electrical towers. Consequently, Edison’s stock plummeted by $4.50 per share—representing a troubling decline of 6.47%—by the close of trading the next day, January 10. Investors who had acquired Edison securities during the specified class period are now confronted with impending deadlines to participate in the lawsuit.
Investor Call to Action
Edison securities purchasers are encouraged to reach out to Danielle Peyton at Pomerantz LLP via email at [email protected] or phone at 646-581-9980. The firm suggests potential class members include their relevant information such as mailing address, phone number, and the total shares purchased when inquiring. Notably, the deadline for filing as a Lead Plaintiff is set for April 21, 2025, making immediate action necessary for affected investors.
Stock Market Impact
On January 13, 2025, following the filing of the initial lawsuit in California state court that claimed Edison was responsible for the Eaton Canyon fire, the company’s stock took a further hit—dropping $7.73 per share, or 11.89%, closing at $57.27. The negative trajectory continued when an article from the Wall Street Journal released on February 6 disclosed that Edison acknowledged the possibility that its equipment may have contributed to the Hurst fire. This news drove the stock down another $1.28, translating to a 2.4% decrease by that trading day’s end, resulting in a final closing price of $51.16.
