Wolfson accused of liquidating American Motors stake
The SEC charged Wolfson with selling his 460000 share holding of American Motors before a liquidation report. He also allegedly shorted 150000 shares hoping for a profit, and his Friday announcement that he was selling could have manipulated the price to profit from the short position.
