Appointed co-lead class counsel on behalf of a class of persons who purchased or sold, from June 2009 to June 2012, physical over-the-counter natural gas contracts or natural gas financial contracts (such as natural gas futures, options, swaps and other derivative instruments) alleging that one of the world’s largest natural gas exploration, production, refinement, marketing, shipping and trading companies illegally manipulated the physical and financial natural gas market in the United States. The class alleges that Defendants’ scheme (intentionally engaging in, and reporting, non-economic transactions in the physical natural gas market) was designed to move indexed natural gas market prices in a way that financially benefited Defendants’ related financial positions.
