The complaint alleges that throughout the Class Period, Defendants traded while in possession of material non-public information and about Archegos and its need to fully liquidate its position in the Company because of margin call pressure. While in possession of material, non-public adverse information, Defendants collectively sold billions of dollars' worth of Company shares. Later, when the information became publicly known, the price of the Company's common stock declined sharply as a result of such disclosure.
