In a recent string of events surrounding the global investment management organization, Franklin Resources, SEC probes, allegations of securities fraud and revenue dips have been causing serious turbulence. The company's stock (NYSE:BEN) has plummeted, hitting a 52-week low at $19.48, later dipping further to $19.6 amid market shifts. Depreciation was seen following an Analyst downgrade, and the shuttering of a $2 billion fund. Legal firms have come up announcing investigations into claims of securities fraud and urging BEN investors seeking compensation to join the fray. On a brighter note, Q3 revenue has shown a vigorous 8% growth and certain insiders have shown commitment with notable purchases of company stock. Management seems proactive with the declaration of a noteworthy dividend of $0.31 and consciously working on strategic expansions amidst the turmoil. However, despite some analysts being bullish on BEN, the Q3 2024 Earnings fell short of estimates.
