FINDINGS OF FACT AND CONCLUSIONS OF LAW
BRIAN BARNETT DUFF, District Judge.
This action under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act (“ERISA”), 29 U.S.C. §§ 1001-1461 accuses defendants of misusing the assets of an employees’ profit-sharing trust. Defendants allegedly invested a substantial portion of the trust’s assets in three speculative stocks for the purpose of enhancing their own investments in those stocks, and delayed distribution of trust assets to beneficiaries in order to profit by prolonging their control of the trust’s stock holdings.
