According to media reports, in March 2023, Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley confidentially learned that the family office Archegos Capital Management (“Archegos”) had failed or was likely to fail to meet a margin call, requiring Archegos to liquidate its position in various companies, including Baidu. Trading on this non-public information, Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley reportedly avoided billions of dollars in losses on their Baidu investments by selling Company securities in late March 2023 before the market learned of Archegos’s difficulties. When this information reached the market, the price of Baidu securities fell sharply, damaging Company investors.
