Merrill Lynch Found Guilty of Intentional Misconduct With Regard to Analysts' Stock Ratings - Merrill Lynch Ordered to Pay More Than $1 Million Including Punitive Damages -
BOCA RATON, Fla., Feb. 28 /PRNewswire/ -- Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith, Inc. (Merrill Lynch) has been ordered by an arbitration panel of the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. (NASD) to pay more than $1 million to Gary and Lisa Friedman, including punitive damages, on the Friedmans' claim that Merrill Lynch hid conflicts of interest and issued fraudulent analyst reports and ratings in order to boost the firm's investment banking revenue.
According to the award, the arbitration panel found "clear and convincing evidence" that Merrill Lynch was "guilty of intentional misconduct in that they had actual knowledge that many of the companies for which they were issuing and/or maintaining ratings of 1, 2 or 3 during the relevant period of time were, in reality, overvalued by this rating system." Further the panel found that Merrill Lynch manager, "knowingly condoned, ratified and consented to the conduct of its employees."
The Friedmans were represented by Boca Raton, Florida securities attorney Robert W. Pearce who argued that all of Merrill Lynch's research analysts were conflicted by the firm's flawed business model.
The Friedmans, who did not own any of the securities identified in New York Attorney General Elliott Spitzer's investigation or the global settlement reached with Wall Street firms in 2003 (see endnote for list of securities in the Friedmans' portfolio), received a seven-figure award with Mr. Pearce's assistance.
"The Merrill Lynch fraud was not limited to its Internet sector research analysts," said Pearce. "It was clear that Merrill Lynch used all of its analysts, securities reports and ratings as marketing vehicles to bolster its investment banking business."
This ruling also represents one of few cases in which punitive damages have been awarded in any analyst case and is one of the rare instances in which a $1 million+ award has been issued.
"This is the largest punitive damage award we have seen in a research analyst case and has significant findings of fact," said Rick Ryder, publisher of Securities Arbitration Commentator, Maplewood, NJ, which tracks awards in the securities industry. "This case will provide encouragement to investors who have filed similar claims to pursue them. It also creates a path for others to follow regarding how to prepare and present a compelling research analyst case."
Pearce stipulated this was a pure Merrill Lynch research analyst conflict- of-interest case and that there were no other issues involved.
"The fact that part of Merrill Lynch analysts' compensation was based upon the performance of the investment banking division is a blatant conflict of interest that was never disclosed to clients," said Pearce. "Individual investors across the country lost billions of dollars because Merrill Lynch and other firms used analysts to pad their own pockets and benefit their investment banking clients instead of their retail clients."

this is a repeating pattern throughout the OTCBB and the pinks.... after i became a subscriber to microcaptrade? i began to see the pattern emerge clearly....
mcrcptrd gives you a chart/quote montauge with news and filings posted immediately beneath the chart....
i kept asking myself why the price is running when they just announced 100% dilutions......
obviously i was looking at information that others don't have.....
BUT,
i was also seeing a lot of "groups" playing the picks, and seeing the stock appear on the SHO list..
and,
i was also seeing shares distributed as "consulting" fees
guess who the consultants are???????

GLUV Corp. Announces Dividend of Homeland Productions, Inc. Shares to Shareholders Friday April 29, 2:53 pm ET
WEST POINT, Ga., April 29 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- GLUV Corp. (Pink Sheets: GLVP - News) today announced that shareholders of record on May 9, 2005 at 5:00 PM EDT will receive a dividend of one common share of Homeland Productions, Inc. for each common share of GLUV Corp. owned at that time. Homeland Productions, Inc. is a private Georgia Corporation that owns all of the assets formerly held by GLUV Corp., consisting primarily of video production operations. Additionally, Homeland Productions, Inc. owns Bisconte Leather Corporation, a Tennessee Corporation, which owns certain intellectual property relating to, and rights to market, certain leather products.
Homeland Productions, Inc. will be debt free after the dividend. GLUV Corp.'s current debt (in excess of $320,000) will remain an obligation of the remaining non-operational GLUV Corp.
Homeland Productions, Inc. will be based in Birmingham, AL and James Shepherd will serve as its President. According to Mr. Shepherd, "The opportunity to leave over $320,000 of existing debt behind, and operate in a debt free environment is a significant opportunity for the shareholders. It is my hope that over the next several years we can grow Homeland Productions, Inc. into a profitable public reporting company. We are currently involved in several very exciting projects which I will be discussing in greater detail in a forthcoming letter to shareholders." At the outset, Homeland Productions, Inc. shares will not be publicly traded.
After the dividend, the Lanier M. Davenport Sr. Family Trust, which is a major creditor and shareholder of GLUV Corp., will assume or arrange for payment of all the corporation's debts to creditors other than itself. It will then acquire however many shares it determines to be necessary so that minority shareholders will be eliminated through a reverse stock split (a conversion of outstanding debt to equity at the anticipated per share price could result in the issuance of more than 600,000,000 additional shares). On May 10, 2005, the corporation will do a reverse stock split in which one new share of GLUV Corp. will be issued for every 6,500,000 old shares. Fractional shares will not be issued. Instead, shareholders who would otherwise receive a fractional share will be paid the value of their shares. Since the corporation will have no assets or business, and substantial debt, it is anticipated that the value of the shares will be only nominal, but the corporation will value the old shares at $.0005 each for purposes of the repurchase.
