That's a thing you can sue for?

Yes, shareholders in the US have rights to sue when their investments don't return profits as promised.

It's pretty sickening.

This is one of the biggest drivers of corporate greed in the US.

Investments are supposed to be a gamble. Imagine losing at the casino and then suing the casino because you didn't get the advertised jackpot.

This isn't about a failed bet. It's about investors not being informed of the changes.

It's closer to having the odds and rules explained, then having the casino change both retroactively after they've taken your money.

That's the problem with our entire system!

You can sue for everything. If you win is another question.
