Wall Street Witch Hunt
November 23, 2010 -- CNBC's Power Lunch
In this live network segment, Jason D'Angelo says the public wants the government to be aggressive in investigating and prosecurting insider trading cases, but he cautions against over-reaching. He says he sees some instances of the government's expanding the definition of insider trading and notes that the whistleblower provisions of Dodd-Frank give the government more resources but believes most of the civil and criminal prosecutions will be based on traditional insider trading methods.

New Law Encourages Whistleblowers
July 28, 2010 -- Hedge Fund Alert
Steven Feldman notes that the financial overhault legislation known as the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act contains a provision that authorizes the SEC to pay an aggregate of $300 million to whistleblowers with insiders' knowledge of fraud. He says, however, that the legislation places some constraints on prospective whistleblowers, requiring them to retain counsel before approaching the SEC, for instance, in an attempt to eliminate false claims of wrongdoing.
