x/united-states-department-of-justice
— Jul 24, 2026

Investigations note that Stamp and Plank sought illicit advantage despite knowing it was illegal, with Stamp researching insider-trading statutes days before the deal and a relative of Plank inquiring about punishment, as prosecutors underscore that such actions undermine fair markets and investor trust amid Rivian’s 23% stock rise following the announcement and Volkswagen’s investment plans moving up to $5.8 billion.
