Contrarian Investments, LLC – Goodman & Nekvasil P.A. May Recover Investor Losses
Securities and Exchange Commission Charges Contrarian Investments, LLC
On September 7, 2018, the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) charged Contrarian Investments, LLC (Contrarian) with violating the federal securities laws. Contrarian was one of a number of organizations formed pursuant to a 2015 Nevada state law that, for the first time, allowed Nevada-based entities to collect and pool money from investors anywhere in the world for purposes of sports wagering. Entities like Contrarian promoted their investment opportunities as functioning like mutual funds.
According to the SEC’s complaint, filed in federal district court for the District of Nevada, in 2015 Nevada passed a law allowing entities to solicit and collect funds from individual investors anywhere in the world, aggregate those funds, place wagers on certain sporting events, and split the wagering profits among the investors. In 2016 and 2017, Contrarian raised over $400,000 from more than 30 investors. Contrarian conducted a general solicitation by widely offering its investment opportunity on the internet and further failed to make a determination regarding whether all of its investors were accredited.
