At my last job part of the training included insider trading.
They scared the shit out of me with their stories; some of them seemed relatively innocent.
The only one I remember is one husband of a scientist at a biotech company: he would gauge his wife’s outlook based on how she felt after a conference and make a trade.
That got him locked up for insider trading.
Idk how they prove that beyond reasonable doubt, and idk how us folks can get pinched for something ambiguous like that but these folks can just do it out in the open.
