'To Catch A Trader' - Insider trading documentary on SAC Capital
'To Catch A Trader' - Insider trading documentary on SAC Capital
Just watched a free documentary on PBS about SAC Capital and insider trading
Interesting view on Steve Cohen's track record: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steven_A._Cohen
Some interesting parts:
- a trader Turney Duff talks about gathering information from his network of sources
- was the first time I had heard about the use of 'expert network firms'
- Fairfax Financial vs SAC Capital and Jim Chanos's Kynikos and alleging collusion with research analysts to drive down FFH stock
Here is the link to the documentary online:

Thanks to CS Investing for their great blog and pointing out this documentary.
