How would you do it if you were working for Microsoft and weren't legally allowed to transact with Microsoft stock because of a trading blackout period?

- mathgenius 6y agoYikes.. If buying QQQ is counted as "transacting with microsoft stock" then you could try finding a basket that didnt have microsoft. I'm not an expert in this stuff, but for example the Russell 2000 fits. It would be better if it was a tech/internet related basket. EDIT: here's a better idea. Just buy apple and/or half a dozen other big tech stocks that you like!
- esrauch 6y agoGenerally the "quiet period" while employed at big tech cos doesn't include index/mutual funds even though they technically include the company.
