SAN FRANCISCO, May 09, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Hagens Berman Sobol Shapiro LLP, with nine offices in eight cities, and 80 attorneys around the country, alerts investors in The Boeing Company (NYSE: BA) - from January 8, 2019 through May 8, 2019 - to the expanded investigation of Boeing executives’ knowledge concerning (1) the newly revealed safety alert issues known by Boeing for over a year before telling the FAA and Airlines, and (2) matters reported by Bloomberg Businessweek on May 9, 2019 - former Boeing engineers reportedly say relentless cost-cutting sacrificed safety of 737 MAX aircraft.
Hagens Berman is investigating whether the class period should be expanded to cover these recent revelations. Boeing’s stock price plunged as much as $12.00 during intraday trading on May 9, 2019 and has affected investors in Boeing’s stock and options.
Hagens Berman filed the first (and currently the only) class action complaint against The Boeing Company (NYSE: BA) alleging 10b-5 disclosure violations of the Federal securities laws relating to the safety of the 737 MAX. The lawsuit, Seeks v. The Boeing Company, No. 19-cv-02394, was filed in the Northern District of Illinois on April 9, 2019. If you wish to serve as lead plaintiff in this class action, you must move the Court no later than June 10, 2019 (the “Lead Plaintiff deadline”).
