Isn't insider trading a part of stock trading?

Posted at: 2014-12-05 
What is your point? Of course it is part of stock trading. It is also a crminal offence.

haven't you noticed that some inside traders get caught?

It is not only the big boys.

It could be the CEO's mistress or secretary getting information!

Big boys have contacts with key players of most of the corporations. They can help anyone do anything and get away with it. Also don't forget that political parties are funded by the rich.
