From an economic perspective, insider trading has plenty of nuances.
On one hand, you have the accountants/analysis that build the company numbers to be made public for investors to trade, and because they get the first peek at information that is not really theirs, if they buy/sell on that then they are definitely commiting this act.
On the other hand, you could have Elon musk reading information every day that could sway him to buy or sell at different prices, from the unique vantage point of his position: this is raw information that is better out there than repressed. (investors wuld know what the CEO thinks).
I have an amateurish devotion to economics and insider trading is one space where its all nuance.
