You will note reports that a lot of rich people unloaded stocks at the same time. Senate report or not, some smart investors were on the ball before everyone else. Before we hang Burr, let’s get some clarity about whether: (a) Burr traded his own stocks; (b) Burr has someone else who does that for him (one would think he would); and (c) if he does have a guy who manages his money, did he communicate with him after the confidential briefing. At this point, as far as I am aware, it is pure speculation. I realize the man is a RINO and did a terrible disservice colluding with Mark Warner throughout the Russia Hoax. Still, we should not act like a bunch of Democrats.

Something to remember here is that Burr’s actions do not constitute “insider trading” by any legal definition. Insider trading involves the trading of individual securities for specific companies based on information that is only available to company insiders for that company. Trading securities based on knowledge of general industry conditions does not constitute “insider trading” under any law or SEC regulation.
