On May 13, 2017 the Honorable Christina A. Synder of the United States District Court for the Central District of California certified a class of investors who purchased or otherwise acquired Silver Wheaton Corp. common stock from March 30, 2011 through July 6, 2015. Professor Steven Feinstein of Babson College and Crowninshield Financial Research provided an expert report about market efficiency.
In particular, the Court noted “Damages for every class member can be mechanically calculated according to Feinstein’s proposed methodology and are therefore subject to class wide proof.”
