According to the Complaint, Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley sold a large amount of ViacomCBS shares during the Class Period while in possession of material, non-public information about Archegos and its need to fully liquidate its position in the Company because of margin call pressure. As a result of these sales, Defendants Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley avoided billions in losses combined.

During one week in late March 2021, investment banks Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley traded on inside information by selling large amounts of VIAC stock based on then publicly undisclosed information obtained through their relationship with troubled multi-billion dollar family office Archegos Capital Management.

On this news, shares of ViacomCBS Inc. stock fell over 55% during the week of March 22, 2021 to March 29, 2021.
