This is Matt Levine’s “Money Stuff” column for this morning. He discusses two topics of recent interest to HN:

1. the insider trading case brought against an Equifax employee yesterday, and

2. the CTS Labs security disclosures that may have been involved in a short sell on AMD shares.

Just putting this comment down to kick off discussion; his writing on financial topics is generally well informed and interesting. In particular his commentary here discusses the legality of trading when you have an informed guess as an insider, but no explicitly material nonpublic information.
