The crux of the complaint is that Rocket Companies allegedly misrepresented its financial health by failing to disclose that its gain on sale margins were shrinking at an alarming rate. This decline was attributed to fierce competition among mortgage lenders, a shift towards a less profitable segment, and narrowing price spreads in the mortgage markets. As the company engaged in a price war to maintain its market share, these adverse trends accelerated, causing a significant drop in margins.
Rocket’s previously favorable market conditions evaporated, with gain on sale margins plummeting to levels not seen since early 2019. Despite this downturn, the company continued to paint an overly optimistic picture of its business operations and future prospects, misleading investors.
For those who have incurred losses in Rocket Companies’ stock during this period, there is an opportunity to seek recovery. Interested parties can visit the provided link to learn more about their rights and the recovery process. Participation comes with no cost or obligation.
