Shares of Bed Bath & Beyond Inc. (NASDAQ: BBBY) shares rose from $4.38 per share on July 1, 2022, to $30.00 per share on August 17, 2022.

However, the plaintiff alleges that the Schedule 13D filing form August 16, 2022, was materially false and constitutes a false written filing because Cohen sold most of the 9,450,100 shares when the filing was submitted and intended to create a buying frenzy of Bed Bath & Beyond Inc. (NASDAQ: BBBY) stocks so he could finish selling his shares at an artificially inflated price. Cohen also filed Form 144 on paper providing notice of his intent to sell up to all his shares and additional call options. This filing was not disclosed to the public until the market closed the next day, August 17, 2022, at 5:07 pm, when Cohen finished dumping his Bed Bath & Beyond Inc. (NASDAQ: BBBY) shares.

The plaintiff alleges that as a result of materially false statements regarding the financial condition and holding situation of Bed Bath & Beyond Inc. (NASDAQ: BBBY) between March 25, 2022 and August 18, 2022, the stock price of BBBY was artificially inflated and that the Defendants, knowing that the information they disclosed was false, took advantage of the inflated stock price and used fraudulent and misleading SEC filings to sell all their Bed Bath & Beyond Inc.
