David Woodcock, the SEC’s enforcement director since May, told Reuters on 30 October 2026 that the agency is examining the corporate disclosures of AI companies as investors worry about a bubble that may have been fed by circular deals. He said enforcement will follow where companies do not disclose material information accurately, and that the enforcement team’s asset management unit is focused on conflicts of interest and valuations in private markets. He also said AI has made scams cheaper to produce at scale and that brokers need processes to protect retail investors.

Why it matters

AI companies that report circular deals, spending or valuations to investors now face the SEC’s enforcement division reading those filings.
