as mentioned in But in its own capitalist way, the public stock market is democratic: Anybody with money can buy into it and share in its risks and rewards. When you buy Twitter stock on the open market, none of your money goes to the company itself. In 2011, then, if you wanted to speculate on Twitter stock, you needed to be a well-connected insider.

The SEC was built on a core principle: that in the world of stock price speculation, there should be a level playing field and equality of opportunity.

As it stated in Terrible closes and selloffs after weak gains in futures are the name of the game in the market right now.
