Navigating Legal and Ethical Waters in Trading

The Department of Justice and the SEC have filed civil and criminal charges against short seller Andrew Left. In a rare pre-trial interview, Left sits down with Andrew Ross Sorkin to discuss the case, the trades in Nvidia, Tesla, and others that are under scrutiny, and what the litigation means for other activist short sellers, including their posts on social media. Plus, the latest jobs report blew past expectations, CEOs and companies are donating to President-elect Trump’s inauguration, and Rep. Dusty Johnson (R-SD) has introduced a bill that could pave the way for the U.S. to purchase the Panama Canal, while the public considers the implications and debates the necessity of buying Greenland.
