The upward trend persisted during the first half of 2018 as 217 action filings were filed. Although the growth of merger objections has slowed down after the ruling on Trulia, merger-objection filings remain dominant. Other cases involve suspected violations of Rule 10b-5, Section 11, and/or Section 12.
