- Shareholder seeks disgorgement of $3 billion in illegal gains and damages from directors for reckless behavior.
This is bullshit. My EV ETF is not doing well and I’m losing my investment while this jagoff gets to sell his stocks ahead of the announcements and runs away with the money? Fuck that shit.
Shareholders should fucking sue if the government ain’t gonna arrest him for insider trading.
I believe that normally companies have restricted time windows for trading for people who may have access to information about the company.

Normally, yes. Working in a couple of big corporations, we would be told when we can’t trade because of internal announcements. We could potentially be accused of insider trading. Unless this read a timed trade that was already scheduled ahead of time.
