Loss Causation After Huey: New Defense Strategies in Securities Fraud
Tuesday, January 12, 2027, from 12:00 PM to 1:00 PM (ET)
The Second Circuit’s decision in Huey v. Anavex Life Sciences Corp. highlights challenges in pleading loss causation when a stock price rises after a corrective disclosure and declines later amid broader market movements. The ruling underscores the need to plausibly connect alleged misrepresentations to investor losses under federal securities law.
In this CLE webinar, Josh A. Rubin, Counsel at Akin Gump Strauss Hauer & Feld LLP; Nikolai H. Caswell, Principal at CRA International, Inc.; and Mame Maloney, Principal at The Brattle Group, Inc., will examine legal pleading standards, economic causation analysis, and class certification implications. Attorneys will gain practical tools to evaluate loss-causation allegations and defense strategies.
Upon completion of this program, attorneys will be able to:
- Apply Huey’s loss-causation analysis to securities fraud pleadings.
- Evaluate delayed price declines, corrective disclosures, and alternative market explanations.
- Assess price impact, market efficiency, and economic evidence relevant to securities claims.
- Analyze class certification, damages methodologies, and defense implications in securities litigation.
