This is outrageous. Per Matt Levine “Musk saved about $143 million by illegally waiting to disclose his purchases [of Twitter shares] so he could buy more in secret.”https://newsletterhunt.com/emails/282521

But, who exactly did he illegally extract (let's just say “steal”) that money from? The stock market makes it difficult to identify victims.
If I stole 143 *thousand*, no matter from who, my ass would be in prison. Also, $143M is pocket change to this guy.
So, this calls for a prison sentence. No?

@timbray Hahaha, we don't lock up rich people for breaking the law, you know that. Then they wouldn't donate to our political campaigns!

@timbray me. I was a shareholder and was defrauded by Musk's violation of securities law. I would prefer to see a criminal penalty that civil restitution.

steal enough and you get to the "corzine line" where nobody can hear you stealing.

@timbray Martha Stewart spent five months in prison for far less than 143 thousand, not million. https://people.com/why-did-martha-stewart-go-to-prison-11918579

@timbray Musk stole the price difference from everyone who sold while he was buying. His actions would have driven the price up had he obeyed the law and made them public.
