That is what I'm trying to wrap my head around reading this conversation. How is that not insider trading? Company A, a non public company, plans to merge with Shell Company B, a public company. So, Company A tells their shareholders and management to buy as many shares as they can of Company B, at a discounted rate, before they merge and go public. Maybe I'm missing something here...
