What kind of securities are eligible for a class action?
All securities are eligible to be covered by a class action. There are times, however, when securities that are not traded in a well-developed, active market (e.g., NYSE, NASDAQ) will not be covered by a particular case. There are legal technicalities that make cases involving thinly traded securities not suitable for a class action.
