Kodak Stock Volatility

Kodak stock soared nearly 3,000% in the days following President Trump’s July 28, 2020 announcement that the company would receive a now-halted $765 million government loan to produce drug ingredients at its U.S. factories.

On July 27, 2020, the day before the announcement, Kodak’s stock price closed at $2.62.  Following the announcement, on July 29, 2020, the stock reached $60, as broker-dealers aggressively pushed Kodak stock to investors with promises of soaring returns. By the end of August 2020, the stock retreated to under $6 a share.

Since Labor Day, Kodak stock’s price has continued to remain volatile.  In mid-September, over a three-day period, the stock price quickly doubled in value from under $6 to over $12.  The stock price would subsequently fall back down to under $7 a share by the end of October 2020.  Kodak’s stock price spiked again on December 7, 2020, this time nearly 100% to over $14 a share.

Best Interest

A financial advisor is required to make recommendations that are in the best interest of an investor.

Iorio Altamirano LLP is investigating whether financial advisors acted in their customers’ best interest in connection with recommendations to purchase shares of Kodak stock any time on or after July 28, 2020.
