- jahewson 3y agoSo if the founder goes on TV and announces their merger then it’s nonpublic information until they file the form? Everyone who trades on that is insider trading? That can’t be right.
- snowwrestler 3y agoThose rules regulate the company, not random people at a bus stop.
- mock-possum 3y agoRight but - that means the company employee gets in trouble for making the information public (via announcing it in public at the bus stop) - not that I would get in trouble for hearing it and acting on it, right?
