First I read about this, so I thought "who's shorting Intel now I wonder", turns out it's the CEO [kinda]:

>"reports this morning that Intel chief executive Brian Krzanich made $25 million from selling Intel stock in late November, when he knew about the bugs, but before they were made public" (https://qz.com/1171391/the-intel-intc-meltdown-bug-is-hittin...)

I assume he's supposed to now be prosecuted, that sounds like insider dealing? [I'd like to say "will be prosecuted" but ...]

as far as conspiracy theories go (i read that some days ago on reddit), he's wont be persecuted because he cooperates with the NSA. refuse to cooperate with them and join Nacchio and Qwest.
