About the Lawsuit

Intel and certain of its executives are charged with failing to disclose material information during the Class Period, violating federal securities laws. 

On January 2, 2018, news reports revealed a “fundamental design flaw” in Intel’s processor chips that increased vulnerability to hacking and that repair updates could slow down the processors significantly, which the Company confirmed the next day; however, subsequent reports revealed that the Company knew of the flaws “a while ago” and then, on January 4, 2018, media outlets reported that Intel’s CEO sold millions of dollars’ worth of Intel shares after learning of the problems, prior to public disclosure.

On this news, the price of Intel’s shares plummeted.
