Btw, hackers accessing this info could possibly explain something I tweeted to them about 10 days ago:

Good catch. Spikes in option activity before the release of non-public information is the clearest indicator of insider trading. If it helps, its also trivially easy for the SEC to identify the traders involved so at the very least they are already looking for these guys to trace where they got the information.

Was the SEC notified about the Equifax hack before the public? With enough time for someone to trade on that information?

Yes. Regulation FD says you have to tell everyone material information at the same time.

Right so hacking Edgar wouldn't be a great source of non public information then no?

[wbl]

It would be because it is where the information goes before it goes public. Sane with a printshop.
