Hi Matt, my friends and I were having an argument the other day and we thought perhaps you would have the answer...

"If Rupert Murdoch had suppressed the Theranos story and then sold his shares would that have been insider trading??"

I was saying no because Murdoch would have not been taking this info from Theranos but from his other businesses. My friend disagreed. What are your thoughts?

Also do you ever read the comments on your columns? I greatly enjoy all the Levine & Co jokes from what I imagine are guys from dealbreaker but I was wondering if you did too.

Thank you for your answer!!

Yah there used to be some very funny guys who would make topical jokes based on whatever the column was about. One guy was named brocaine_brandy and the other guy I remember was u/Grafteq.
