In Washington, an FBI team and market regulators analyzed thousands of trades using algorithms to determine if information in Director’s Desk could be traced to suspicious transactions. They found no evidence that had happened, according to two people briefed on the results.
The fact that they found no evidence that anyone traded using insider information obtained from the compromise of Director's Desk doesn't mean that it didn't happen. As with hackers, only the incompetent insider dealers get caught. It's entirely possible to obfuscate trading activity to conceal the fact that you're trading based on insider information.
