Kernrechtsfrage
Whether the plaintiffs proved a causal link between allegedly misleading prospectus statements and their share purchases/losses under Art. 752 OR.
Extrahierter Entscheid
The plaintiffs failed to show, with the required probability, that the prospectus content caused their purchase decisions or losses.
Extrahierte Begründung
Prospectus liability requires natural and adequate causation. The court held that the plaintiffs bore the burden of proof and only benefited from a reduced standard of proof (overwhelming probability), not a reversal of burden. Challenges to the lower court's factual findings on natural/hypothetical causation were inadmissible on appeal.
