PHILADELPHIA -- Barrack, Rodos & Bacine today announced that a class action has been commenced in the United States District Court for the Central District of California on behalf of purchasers of Broadcom Corporation (Nasdaq: BRCM - news) common stock during the period between July 31, 2000 and March 6, 2001. The complaint alleges that during the Class Period defendants made positive but false statements about Broadcom's results and business, while concealing material adverse information about agreements with certain companies it acquired, which essentially resulted in Broadcom buying its own revenues with warrants. As a result, Broadcom's stock traded at artificially inflated levels, permitting the three individual defendants to sell $45.8 million worth of their Broadcom stock.
