SHAREHOLDER NOTICE: Israels & Neuman, PLC Launches Investigation Into ForceField Energy, Inc. Stock Losses
SEATTLE, May 9, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Israels & Neuman, PLC is a securities fraud law firm with offices in Denver, Colorado and Seattle, Washington. Israels & Neuman announces that its investment fraud attorneys have launched an independent investigation into potential market manipulation related to ForceField Energy, Inc. stock.
ForceField was a publicly traded company that formerly traded on the NASDAQ under ticker symbol (FNRG). The company is purportedly a distributor and provider of high end LED lighting products and "alternative" energy. As of today, the stock is currently valued at roughly $.02 per share, in sharp contrast to trading at nearly $8.00 per share in early 2015.
Israels & Neuman's investigation commenced in response to the dramatic stock price fluctuation and major news outlets reporting that several individuals "manipulated ForceField's stock from December 2009 to April 2015 by secretly trading it in undisclosed accounts, inflating trading volume to create a false sense of demand, and concealing kickbacks to stock promoters and brokers to tout it." Criminal charges and an SEC civil action have been filed against 9 individuals, including several current and former registered brokers related to alleged ForceField kickbacks, including: Gerald Cocuzzo of Newbridge Securities Corp., Naveed (Nick) Khan of Meyers Associates, Maroof Miyana of Legend Securities, Pranav Patel of Dawson James Securities, and Richard L. Brown of Chelsea Financial Services.
