Rule 105 typically prohibits short selling a stock within five business days of participating in an offering for that same stock. Such dual activity typically results in illicit profits for the trader while reducing the offering proceeds for a company by artificially depressing the market price shortly before the company prices the stock. The SEC’s investigations in the current round found that 6 firms engaged in short selling of particular stocks shortly before they bought shares from an underwriter, broker, or dealer participating in a follow-on public offering. Each firm has agreed to settle the SEC’s charges and pay a combined total of more than $2.5 million in disgorgement, interest, and penalties.

Auriga Global Investors, Sociedad de Valores, S.A. – The Spain-based firm agreed to pay disgorgement of $436,940.52, prejudgment interest of $2,184.70, and a penalty of $179,277.28.
