Was it classified? Did we all not see what happened in China and think it couldn't happen here? People like to knock Burr and all, but I don't think there was anything special he saw that the rest of us didn't see coming. I didn't act, but I'm not going to fault those that did. And what if he did say something to everyone? That would have caused a panic then and there, people would make a run on the banks, and the market still would be down.

Certainly it goes without saying the head of the Senate intelligence committee has access to classified and top secret information.

He sold nearly 100% of his net worth in stocks and his public political position is inconsistent with the sale of the stock which he has at least admitted was influenced by public news reporting. It leaves one to wonder why the public news would guide his financial decisions, when as a Senator he had a different political position. Not to mention its is established he dropped the market crash tip at a $10,000/plate campaign fundraiser dinner.

Can we watch his buying activity to predict the market bottom?

No, but you could purchase a $10,000 plate at his next fundraiser and he may just tell you, like he told the donors at the last fundraiser before the crash.
