On Wednesday, October 6, 2016, The Editorial board at The New York Times published an article called " The Supreme Court Revisits Insider Trading" where they explains how insider trading is affecting the people and public justice. Insider Trading refers to the illegal practice of trading on the stock exchange to one's own advantage through having access to confidential information. The Editorial Board argues that the practice of insider trading is affecting the public by providing confidential information to relatives or special investors that will get substantial monetary or reputation benefits that later on they will shared them with the person who provided such information. The Editorial has incredible points to discuss; however, they should had presented more information about this important issue as well as deep inside it. The article is short, but it is full of important information and facts that get the reader straight to the point. The authors clearly publish this article to the general public hoping that the public put more emphasis on this issue that deals no only with finance crime but also with the Supreme Court if the judges leave this crime unpunished it will lead to bigger issues, the editorial board stated "absolving Mr. Salman would set precedent that would make the fight to stop illegal insider trading even harder". They keep the audience by providing the article with a real court case "Dirks v, S.E.D., the case provides the article with facts.
       The argument  illegal insider trading that the editorial board is presenting is well supported with facts and with values such as Justice and Honesty. As they explained that inside trading is not well defined by the federal laws, they stated that courts have said that it is a crime for an insider to share confidential information to get benefits either money or reputational. This issue is important to the government or it should be the authors are putting The Supreme Court on the line questioning it if they can enforce justice or they will let Bassam Salman and Mr Kara unpunished  
            In conclusion, the Editorial Board  made a great work presenting this argument and backing the arguments with evidence like the court case and Salman's trial. it convinced me that we should do something in order to stop inside trading because on the 21st century and a country where we value honesty and justice these kind of illegal practices should be banned and Bassam Salman should be the example of it. it didn't changed any of my mind, but that last line really hit own my values "justice shall be done".
