National investment loss lawyers KlaymanToskes reports that the firm is representing a Robinhood customer who suffered significant investment losses due to the platform’s operational outages in 2021. The investor is seeking the recovery of $250,000 as he had no ability to trade his call options in GameStop (NYSE: GME).
On January 28, 2021, Robinhood’s trading application froze and many customers were unable to access their accounts, resulting in investment losses that instead would have generated substantial gains. In this case, the law firm is representing a Robinhood customer who was unable to trade his GameStop shares as a result of the outage, when the stock rose to over $482 per share.
By the time the customer was able to access his account, GameStop’s stock had declined and he had lost the opportunity to realize the substantial gain in the call options. Had the customer been able to login and sell his call options on GameStop, he would have generated a profit of approximately $250,000.
