Let's make it clear: do you really claim that what's inside of the < title > there is not a linkbait and SEO?

And that the words appear anywhere else except in the < title > tag there?

Note that the policy of HN is otherwise to even not use the title even when it appears in the real content of the page if it is a linkbait and I, personally and subjectively, like and support that approach. The current title doesn't follow it.

I'm not trying to diminish the topic itself, it's obvious that the S.A.C. Capital Advisors, L.P. used insider info for their trading often, and that it was probably the major way they had an "edge."

"In November 2013, the firm itself pled guilty to insider trading charges and paid $1.2 billion in penalties."

Still the article actually focuses almost exclusively on Martoma and his source and their backgrounds for a single insider trading case.
