Event Summary

Rosen Law Firm reminds investors of the August 28, 2026 lead plaintiff deadline in a securities class action against Citadel Securities and Virtu Financial on behalf of purchasers or sellers of Genius Group Limited securities between April 12, 2022 and May 30, 2025. The lawsuit alleges that the defendants engaged in spoofing, a manipulative trading practice, by submitting and canceling thousands of baiting orders on U.S. stock exchanges to mislead other market participants about supply and demand for Genius securities, thereby influencing the stock price and increasing transaction costs. Genius Group is the issuer of the securities, and the defendants are accused of profiting from the alleged manipulation. The class action has already been filed, and investors seeking to serve as lead plaintiff must move the court by the deadline.
