politicians will never want to stop insider trading because politicians are the biggest winners when it comes down to insider trading. there's a lot of information left out of this video.
I would guess it’s so hard to prosecute because the people doing the prosecuting are doing the inside training. The people make laws are all doing it as well.
Congresspeople who make laws that advantage and disadvantage certain companies and listen to lobbying pitches all day every day are not barred from investing in those companies
I have uncle in my family who's retired who recently made around 750k because he heard his friend that works that moved off and got a job at a company in North Carolina. The friend said the company was coming out with certain kind of product. Not really thinking about it but my uncle took initiative and thought it would be a good deal. This was after the stock market crash so he put $50,000 into it from his 401k and he sold it last year for a profit of $748,000
I'm not sure that's exactly insider trading. Anyone could have known that company was hiring, and your dad didn't even know exactly WHAT product was being released, it could've been a total dud.
@@Mcfunface anyway it was inside trading because the information came from or insider, a high level official within the company but just from having casual conversation. He told my uncle information that only people within the company knew, just from having casual conversation about his new job. By the time it reached the public that they were releasing a product, it was a year later and the stock was over $13 He bought it under a dollar. Not like they were scheming trying to make money, My uncle just decided to put some money into it because he thought it would be a big deal and it was.. His friend told him that the stock supposed to go to $20 at least but it went even higher all the way to $67

Why SEC needs funding? Align incentives. 10% of won litigations against wrongdoers on wall street goes to SEC budget. 1% of that gets directly added to SEC employees bonuses. Next?
Insider trading is a difficult crime to prove, as it requires proving intent without a smoking gun of evidence, such as an email explicitly stating the intent to manipulate stock prices. Martha Stewart was famously accused of insider trading but was actually convicted of obstruction of justice. Congress has not explicitly defined insider trading, leading to two theories: classical insider trading, where an officer or director of a company uses confidential information for personal gain, and misappropriation, where individuals outside the corporation use confidential information to trade. Insider trading can be prosecuted through civil or criminal law, with the Securities and Exchange Commission handling civil litigation at the federal level and the Department of Justice handling criminal cases. In 2022, the SEC amended an existing rule to enhance investor protections against insider trading, leading to the first insider trading case prosecuted exclusively based on this rule in March 2023. The SEC took on 760 total enforcement actions in fiscal year 2022 and recovered more than $6.4 billion that year. It's important to distinguish between investigations of reporting rule violations and fraud investigations, as the latter requires evidence of a deceptive scheme. Overall, insider trading remains difficult to stop due to the lack of a clear definition and the challenge of proving intent.
I hope those scamming and moving with bad/foul intentions are taking note that EVERYONE is getting their karma and a lot is being exposed in this decade. *What goes around, comes around* is a real thing and that's why I move with good intentions, I can't afford no bad karma, vibez, energy, etc. to come into my life, especially in 2023.
Isn’t there a loophole in making the information public (under technicality)? Doesn’t that make de amplification on social media platforms even more problematic ?
Football (super bowls) and Kentucky derbies do this. They rig the game and race knowing people bet and some are given details on who to bet on. This happens all the time
Given the current economic difficulties that the country is experiencing in 2023, how can we enhance our earnings during this period of adjustment? I cannot let my $680k savings vanish after putting in so much effort to accumulate them.
Yes true, I have been in touch with a financial advisor. With an initial starting reserve of $80k, my advisor chooses the entry and exit commands for my portfolio, which has grown to approximately $550k.
There are a lot of independent advisors you might look into. But i work with NICOLE DESIREE SIMON and I have been working together for nearly four years, and she is excellent. You could proceed with her if she satisfies your discretion. I endorse her

Catching insider trading is like trying to indict corrupted politicians who are bought by their rich buddies and family. it's legal because they can advocate things they believe in while taking campaign funding. Rules are set up such that they're all illegal and legal at the same time. The only difference between you doing something illegal vs someone else who can get away is they got lawyers and good ones while your lawyers are literally just begging for a lighter sentence.
Congress IS insider trading. Nancy Pelosi defended her "right" to insider trade feely in Congress to a reporters face, so of course they aren't eager to define it and make it easier to prosecute.
does "material information" include offering to pay off a near worthless bond that's in default after buying the majority of issued debt. then selling at higher value immediately while you pay off balance over time........just seems that people should bet on things that they can influence.
What if I accidentally get to know confidential information about a company? For example I hear two employees of a company talk to each other in the metro. Can't I use that information for trading?
Personally, there are only 2 people on RUclips I trust for any kind of financial advise. Meet Kevin, and Bab Sharpe. Kevin does a lot of analysis of what is driving the market up or down. Bob shows how you "could" make money on certain stocks or ETF's if you follow a strategy. My personal strategy is monthly dividend paying ETF's. I take what I earn and reinvest it. ETF's generally don't have much price fluctuation either.

It's hard to stop because the lawmakers are the biggest culprits.

Politicians should be able to invest too

Exactly, if they prosecute then they open the door to convict themselves.
Because politicians never arrest themselves
Unless they are hacked by the Phantom Thieves and have a change of heart.
Why is insider trading so hard to stop? Because everyone at the federal reserve and White House does it.
Close. It's mostly run of the mill representatives and their staffers that do it, and to a lesser extent, executives of the bureaucracies themselves.

Laws don’t apply to law makers. They creating the laws so you comply, they don’t
it's a free market
I'm sure catching politicians was just as hard at it.
It's hard to prosecute because a lot of powerful people do it and nobody wants to hurt their feelings.
"Why Prosecuting Insider Trading Is So Problematic" Simple answer, the politicians do it and they don't want it to be strictly stopped...

Calling someone the Oracle of Omaha is a big joke when we know he is privy to the insider information.

All you have to do is make a sizable donation to your local democratic party and you will be off the hook
If you make it easier to catch insider trading then the politicians who do it might get caught too so that's why it's still hard
Our politicians do it everyday and get away with it.
It is really hard to do something that you have zero interests on doing.
Why SEC needs funding? Align incentives. 10% of won litigations against wrongdoers on wall street goes to SEC budget. 1% of that gets directly added to SEC employees bonuses. Next?

I don't see how someone who gets an inside tip is not supposed to act on it. Are they supposed to do nothing and take a financial loss?
58k so they are going after little people that can’t defend themselves. Nice
So basically these insider trading laws affect only the poor and middle class... as with EVERY law being passed. It doesn't affect the rich.

Then we have senators using insider knowledge to actively trade, like the Pelosi and McConnell families.
