Economic reports from public universities, trade groups and other nongovernmental organizations can move markets just as official data from the U.S. government. But unlike government reports, where great pains are taken to make certain no one gets them ahead of time, few rules control release of nongovernmental economic reports. Unknown to many investors, selling early access is routine. It's legal, and so is trading on the advance peeks, reports the Wall Street Journal. Reference Link |
