Trust Stamp alleges possible illegal short selling
Aug 25, 2023 – Executives with biometric ID firm Trust Stamp suspect its shares are being depressed in value by naked short selling.
In naked short selling, or naked shorting, the shares of a company are sold without first borrowing the shares or at least confirming that the share exist. The practice, which drives down the price of a company’s stock, is largely illegal.
It’s largely illegal because federal lawmakers fashioned equity trading laws after the 2008 financial crisis that left open some loopholes.
Short selling itself is legal but infuriating to management and some investors. It is when an investor borrows a security and sells it on a stock market, fully expecting to buy it back for later at a discount.
Trust Stamp alleges that a large percentage of its trading volume has come in the form of short selling.
The company is working with the Securities and Exchange Commission, Department of Justice, Nasdaq and the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority to stop the practice and punish those involved.
