U.S. prosecutors have separately announced charges

U.S. prosecutors have separately announced charges against an insider-trading ring consisting of 32 traders and hackers, marking the first time criminal allegations have been brought for a securities fraud scheme involving hacked inside information. Stolen press releases gave the rogue traders $100M in illegal proceeds by allowing them to trade on news before it hit the wires. Hackers were then paid a flat fee or a percentage of the profits gained from the trading.
