Is it insider trading if I bought Boeing puts while inside the wrecked airplane?

I’m curious about trading on your supply chain partners.

Can Apple buy stock in a chip manufacture before they sign a deal with them?

Can they short them before not renewing a contract?

Another way of asking, is trading other companies based on insider knowledge from your company legal?

No, no, and yes.

Do you mean no, no, and no?

#3 is a general case of specific cases 1 & 2.

I don’t think 3 can be a yes if 2&3 are a no.

Of course you're right, I had misread the third question.

Oh right, I had misread the last one. Of course it's no, no, and no.
