LJM  Partners  operates  as  an   investment  management  firm.  The   Company specializes in volatility strategies aims to deliver low correlation to equity markets. LJM Preservation & Growth Fund is an open-end fund incorporated in the  United States. The  Fund’s  objective  is  capital  appreciation.  The  Fund  invests primarily in long  and short call  and put  options on Standard  & Poor’s  500 Index futures contracts and cash and cash equivalents, including  high-quality short-term debt securities such as U.S. Treasury securities.

The filed Complaint  alleges  that  throughout the  Class  Period,  Defendants  made materially false and misleading  statements regarding the Company’s  business, operational and  compliance  policies.  Specifically, Defendants  made  false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that:

  • LJMIX was not focused on capital preservation and left investors exposed to an  unacceptably high risk of catastrophic losses; and
     
  • Managers of LJMIX had not taken appropriate  steps to preserve  capital  in  down  markets  and  left  investors  exposed  to  an unacceptably high risk of  catastrophic losses.

The excessive risk inherent in the  fund  began to emerge on February 5, 2018, when the S&P fell approximately 4.6%. In the wake of this drop,  LJMIX plunged from $9.82  on February 2,  to
$1.94 on February 7, 2018, a  loss of approximately 80%.
