Isn’t market manipulation illegal, immoral, or at least fattening?!
There are those who feel that insider trading and other forms of market manipulation should not be regulated as they are in most existing markets. Proponents of this view say that information that flows within company walls is really no different than the so-called public information. Insiders buy and sell stock all the time without being accused of insider trading. Outsiders create sophisticated computer algorithms using an army of math whizzes to glean small nuggets of insight on whether to buy or sell. The mantra of the markets is that eventually the truth will out in the form stock price.
