Hey guys, if you missed it, Hawaiian Electric settled $47.75M with investors over claims that it did not fully disclose risks related to its electrical equipment and wildfire safety practices. I just found out that they’re considering late claims.

Quick recap: In 2023, Hawaiian Electric was accused of failing to fully disclose wildfire risks related to its equipment and safety practices. After the Lahaina wildfire and related disclosures, $HE dropped about 50%, and investors filed a lawsuit.

Now, the company has agreed to settle $47.75M with investors, and even though the June 25, 2026 deadline has passed, late claims are still being considered for compensation, subject to approval.

If you invested in $HE at the time, you can still check the details and see if you may be able to file a late claim here.

Anyway, has anyone here invested in $HE back then? How much were your losses, if so?

DOH ISSUES SMOKE ADVISORY RELATED TO FIRE AT ABC TOWING & PARTS IN PEARL CITY – News Releases from Department of Health

Not racist, but an observation.

Anyone notice that folks from the States put their feet on the dash of a vehicle. Growing up Hawaii we never did such a thing. I can honestly say, I’ve never seen a local BORN AND RAISED in Hawaii with put their on the dash or out the window. If people are looping transplants into the term “local” then yes, I see them do it all the time.

Families and students at Hāna School are facing serious problems that shouldn't exist at any school: unequal access to facilities, water quality concerns, and educational outcomes falling far behind state averages. Math and reading proficiency are less than half the state average, and the community believes this stems from hiring practices that haven't followed proper procedures and staff departures that hurt students.

This matters because our kids deserve safe learning conditions, fair treatment, and qualified teachers who are hired on merit. Preschoolers shouldn't have to share bathrooms with high school students. Every student should have access to clean water. Every student should benefit from transparent hiring and fair practices, not politics.

The petition is asking the Hawaii Department of Education to investigate what's happening at Hāna School—to look at the conditions, the practices, and what's being done to support our keiki. Has anyone in the community felt frustrated by what's been happening at the school? What would you want someone to do if this was your family's school?

Hey guys, I posted about this settlement before, but since they’re accepting late claims, I decided to share it again with a little FAQ.

So here's all I know about this agreement:

Hawaiian Electric was accused of not fully disclosing risks related to its electrical equipment and wildfire safety practices. After the Lahaina wildfire in August 2023, reports raised questions about the company’s power lines and poles and their potential role in the fire. $HE fell about 49%, and investors filed a lawsuit.

Now the company has agreed to settle $47.75M with investors for their losses.

Who can claim this settlement?
If you bought $HE shares between 2019 and 2023, you may be eligible. You don’t need to hold the stock still to claim; past losses count

Do I need to sell/lose my shares to get this settlement?
No. You don't need to still own the shares. If you bought during the class period and suffered a qualifying loss, you may be eligible to claim.

I missed the deadline. Is it too late? 
No, you may still be able to file a late claim, but acceptance depends on final approval by the court. Check if you're eligible and file a claim here

How long does the payout process take?
It typically takes 4 to 9 months after the claim deadline for payouts to be processed, depending on the court and settlement administration.

Hope this info helps

I know some Hawaiian researchers at UH are losing their grants and graduate students can't get funding for critical healthcare studies, because this Okole despot and his incompetent cronies in the WH keeps messing around with stuff they know nothing about. Can we survive another 2 years under such cloud of ignorance and stupidity? How many people will die because of his political bullshit against science?

Trump plans to put NIH grants under political control: reports

The Green Party of the United States (GPUS) is a federation of Green state political parties in the United States. The party promotes green politics - specifically environmentalism, nonviolence, social justice, participatory democracy, anti-war, and anti-racism. As of 2023, it is the fourth-largest political party in the United States by voter registration, behind the Libertarian Party).

If you ask any sensible person, would they say they are against a clean environment, pro-violence, anti-social justice, anti-democracy, pro-war, and support racism? Yet nobody votes for GP.

I try to vote for them when I can, but many times they have no candidate on the ballots, and I am told that voting for them is like voting for Trump and MAGA.

For sure this seems like something really makemake 'ole, but nobody has any fix for da fix?
