Supreme Court of the United States

Macquarie Infrastructure Corp. v. Moab Partners, L. P.

April 12, 2024601 U.S. 257

Summary

The Supreme Court held that pure omissions are not actionable under Rule 10b–5(b), meaning a failure to disclose information required by Item 303 cannot support a private securities fraud claim unless it renders a prior statement misleading. The Court vacated the Second Circuit’s judgment and remanded for further proceedings consistent with this rule.
