Class Action Lawsuit Against Genius Group Limited

In a recent announcement, Pomerantz LLP has initiated a class action lawsuit on behalf of investors who suffered losses holding securities of Genius Group Limited. This lawsuit points to potential violations linked to the practices of Citadel Securities LLC and Virtu Americas LLC, raising significant security law concerns.

Allegations of Fraudulent Practices

The complaint laid out by Pomerantz claims that the defendants, along with certain officers and directors at Genius, may have engaged in manipulative tactics, specifically a practice called "spoofing." This illegal activity involves placing orders to buy or sell securities without the intention to execute them, subsequently canceling these orders. Allegedly, this tactic misled market participants regarding the actual demand and supply levels of Genius securities, creating a false sense of volatility and impacting stock prices to the advantage of the defendants.

Impact on Investors

Throughout the class period specified, the complaint identifies a correlation between spikes in spoofing activities and sharp drops in stock prices. For instance, significant short positions were established by the defendants during specific trading weeks, correlating with inflated share prices that did not reflect genuine market conditions. One notable example is a week in February 2025 when Genius's stock price fell by 22% despite the absence of any material negative news affecting the company.

Call to Action for Investors

Investors who acquired Genius securities during the defined class period are advised to reach out if they wish to be designated as Lead Plaintiff. The firm has set a crucial deadline of August 28, 2026, for investors to submit their petitions. Interested parties should contact Danielle Peyton at Pomerantz LLP via email or telephone for further information.
