The complaint alleges that throughout the Class Period, Galena made false and/or misleading statements that led to the artificial inflation of Galena's stock price, allowing its Chief Executive Officer to sell $3.8 million worth of his Galena stock.

On February 12, 2014, an article featured on TheStreet.com alleged Galena was engaging in a misleading campaign aimed at boosting its stock price, alleging that investor relations firm The DreamTeam Group had published articles under aliases promoting the Company's stock without disclosing their sponsorship. Then on February 14, 2014, Galena acknowledged that it had paid the investor relations firm The DreamTeam Group to promote the Company.

If you suffered a loss in Galena you have until May 5, 2014 to request that the Court appoint you as lead plaintiff.
