Insider trading is a type of securities fraud that occurs when confidential information is spread to shareholders so that they can take actions that are one step ahead of what is public knowledge. For example, if an investor receives confidential information that suggests the stock price of a company is going to take a hit, the shareholder will be able to sell shares before their price goes down. This is an illegal act and is heavily enforced by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).
