Hmm, ok I didn;'t know that. But if I wrote a column giving tips in a paper, wouldn't I act upon my own advice first?!

The problem is not that they say buy shares X and they buy them also - that's okay, the problem was that they were saying - buy shares X while they were selling their own shares X, effectively they were pumping market up in order to gain themselves.

However things would have been better if failed big company directors were going to jail rather than getting golden parachutes. More importantly speculators should not be able to affect market materially.
