OPINION

MOTLEY, District Judge.

I. BACKGROUND

In 1984, the Bass defendants, a group of investors, purchased a large quantity of Texaco stock. Pursuant to the provisions of Section 13(d)(1) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the Basses filed a Schedule 13(d) statement representing that the acquisition was solely for investment purposes. Soon thereafter, defendant Texaco announced it would repurchase the Bass stock at terms extremely favorable to the Bass investors. This series of events spawned numerous lawsuits brought by Texaco stockholders.
