Questione giuridica chiave
Whether the defendant's conduct constituted criminal market manipulation under Art. 161bis StGB
Decisione estratta
The conduct did not amount to punishable market manipulation because the provision covers only narrowly defined sham transactions, not the transactions at issue.
Motivazione estratta
The measures taken were neither wash sales nor matched orders, and the parking-like conduct was likewise not covered by Art. 161bis StGB.
