Amazon Complaint Filed: Submit Your Losses To Johnson Fistel
Shareholder rights law firm Johnson Fistel, LLP announces that a class action lawsuit has commenced on behalf of investors of Amazon.com, Inc. (“Amazon” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: AMZN). The class action is on behalf of shareholders who purchased Amazon securities between July 30, 2021, and April 28, 2022, both dates inclusive (the “Class Period”). Investors are hereby notified that they have until September 6, 2022 to move the Court to serve as lead plaintiff in this action.
What actions may I take at this time? If you suffered a loss and are interested in learning more about being a lead plaintiff, please contact Jim Baker (jimb@johnsonfistel.com) by email or phone at 619-814-4471. If emailing, please include a phone number.
There is no cost or obligation to you.
The complaint alleges that, throughout the Class Period, Defendants made numerous false and misleading statements to investors concerning Amazon’s continued investments in expanding infrastructure and fulfillment network capacity. Specifically, Defendants repeatedly assured investors that the Company’s infrastructure and fulfillment investments were driven not just by recent increased demand related to the pandemic, but also “long-term trends” and “strong multiyear demand.” In reality, the Defendants knew or recklessly disregarded that the Company’s infrastructure and fulfillment network investments substantially outpaced demand, and that those investments were a massive, self-imposed, undue drain on Amazon’s financial condition. Indeed, contrary to Defendants’ public statements during the Class Period, by July 2021, Defendants had already implemented cutbacks to Amazon’s fulfillment capacity without disclosing that critical information to investors. As a result of Defendants’ misrepresentations and omissions, Amazon’s common stock traded at artificially inflated prices during the Class Period.
A lead plaintiff will act on behalf of all other class members in directing the Amazon class-action lawsuit. The lead plaintiff can select a law firm of its choice to litigate the class-action lawsuit. An investor’s ability to share any potential future recovery of the Amazon class action lawsuit is not dependent upon serving as lead plaintiff.
