Default Re: Golden oppertunity?

Martha Stewart sold her shares because the CEO sold. She couldn't be prosecuted for insider trading, but got busted for lying to investigators.

There are lots of ways to determine that a merger is pending that involve non-public information that isn't really "insider". Tracking executive travel/meetings would be a start.
