FINRA Sanctioned McCabe For Excessive Trading

Also, on December 11, 2024, FINRA issued Case: 2019060753510 sanctioning Sean McCabe for infractions. Specifically, McCabe was ordered to pay a $5,000 fine, provide $19,275 in restitution plus interest, and serve a three-month suspension. Notably, FINRA alleged that McCabe excessively traded a client’s account.

According to FINRA, McCabe recommended frequent in-and-out transactions to a client while he was employed at Worden Capital Management LLC. These recommendations included suggesting that the client sell positions shortly after purchasing them, even when the price of the security had not changed in a meaningful way. FINRA indicated that the client—an individual in his late fifties with a speculative risk tolerance—regularly relied on McCabe’s advice and typically followed his recommendations. For this reason pattern, FINRA found that McCabe held de facto control over the client’s account.

FINRA asserted that McCabe’s trading activity between September 2015 and October 2019 resulted in 86 transactions that produced an annualized turnover rate of 8 and an annualized cost-to-equity ratio of approximately 36 percent. FINRA concluded that this activity generated $19,275 in commissions while causing $57,445 in realized losses to the client. Because the trading was deemed excessive and unsuitable, FINRA determined that McCabe violated FINRA Rules 2111 and 2010.

FINRA resolved the matter through an Acceptance, Waiver Consent. McCabe agreed to the sanctions without admitting or denying the findings. His suspension runs from January 6, 2025 through April 5, 2025.

It appears that McCabe allegedly caused the investor to sustain damages relating to stocks and over-the-counter equities.
