Excessive Trading or "Churning"
When a broker buys and sells securities in your account to generate commissions that seem excessive, there is a strong possibility that your account is being "churned.” However, “churning” also includes any trading done to benefit the broker - rather than the investor. Therefore, even one trade may be churning if it has no legitimate purpose.
To establish that a broker churned your account, you must show excessive trading patterns. This can be done with several kinds of evidence, including:
- Calculations to determine the annualized rate of return, which was necessary to cover the commissions charged in your account.
- Number of times that the equity in your account was turned over to purchase securities.
- Purchase and sale trading activity that occurred in your account.
If you believe that you have been the victim of investment fraud or broker misconduct, it is important to talk with a Michigan investment fraud lawyer today. Please submit a simple, free and confidential legal consultation form now.
