Ernesto Chavez (CRD: 4315877) faces a new pending claim on BrokerCheck over an investment made in 2018. The customer alleges $180,000 in damages, and no arbitrator has ruled on the claim.

Investors might have sustained losses due to securities broker David Victor Janny [CRD: 1272727, Easton, Connecticut], given the public information found on Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA) BrokerCheck. Janny has worked for Ameriprise Financial Services LLC since July 15, 2022, and previously worked for Morgan Stanley from November 21, 2012, to August 3, 2022. Investors are encouraged to continue reading to discover more about Janny’s client dispute disclosures.
Evidently, on October 23, 2024, an Ameriprise Financial Services client filed FINRA Arbitration No. 24-02292 about David Janny. Mainly, the client alleged that Janny made unsuitable recommendations between July 2022 and October 2023 involving speculative energy-sector and precious-metals stocks. For this reason, the client allegedly sustained damages. Therefore, the client requested $500,000 in compensation from Ameriprise Financial Services or Janny. The disclosure listed the arbitration as pending.
Also, a Morgan Stanley client contested Janny’s sales practices, according to a complaint dated February 12, 2024. Allegedly, Janny engaged in unauthorized trading by placing options trades in the client’s account during 2021 without the client’s permission. It appears that Janny allegedly caused the client to sustain damages. As a result, the client sought $500,000 in compensation from Morgan Stanley or Janny in this matter. Morgan Stanley denied the complaint on March 11, 2024.
