Several paragraphs in this article discuss the diminishing numbers of securities class action lawsuits that were filed last year. Stanford's Securities Class Action Clearinghouse and Professor Joseph A. Grundfest are referenced:

The study, from the Stanford Law School Securities Class Action Clearinghouse, said the number of class actions declined 38 percent, to just 110 filings, compared with 178 in 2005. Last year’s total was 43 percent below the 10-year historical average.
