If a company has a restricted trading window to avoid insider trading, what exactly constitutes trading? Besides everything related to the individual stock including futures, puts, and actual buy/sell operations? For example, what if I buy/sell a mutual fund that invests in that individual stock? What if my robot advisor decides to buy/sell that individual stock? thx
I believe the chances of getting caught are so minute it’s worth the risk of doing insider trading
This is exactly my feelings about homicide of an unknown party. Just saying...
This is either a joke (azr’s post), or really, really bad advice. SEC doesn’t fuck around when it comes to insider trading.
Setting how RSU should be handled (sell all, sell to cover etc) is also considered trading and should be done only during trading window even if order is executed outside the window
Funds or ETFs might be ok, depending on how much of the company stock they hold. Roboadvisers are not excluded - the burden is on you to configure them appropriately or not use them. Most of the time you are also prohibited from trading any derivatives at any time, not just outside the trading window. 🍆
Most ask when you sign up
