BREAKING: SEC Probes Twitter-Jump Trading Insider Trading Scheme

突發事件：SEC 調查 Twitter-Jump Trading 內線交易計劃

New York, NY - In a bombshell development, the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has launched a formal investigation into allegations of insider trading involving Twitter Inc. and high-frequency trading firm Jump Trading LLC.

紐約州紐約 - 爆炸性進展，美國證券交易委員會 (SEC) 對涉及 Twitter Inc. 和高頻交易公司 Jump Trading LLC 的內幕交易指控啟動了正式調查。

The probe, which began several weeks ago, centers around the suspicious sale of Twitter shares by Jump Trading shortly before the company announced its disappointing fourth-quarter earnings on February 9, 2023. Sources close to the investigation have confirmed that the SEC is examining whether Jump Trading obtained material, non-public information about Twitter's financial performance and used it to make illegal profits.

這項調查於幾週前開始，重點是在該公司於2023 年2 月9 日宣布令人失望的第四季度收益之前不久，Jump Trading 可疑出售Twitter 股票。接近調查的消息人士證實，SEC 正在調查是否Jump Trading 獲取了有關 Twitter 財務業績的重要非公開信息，並利用這些信息獲取非法利潤。

According to court documents filed in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York, the SEC has subpoenaed Jump Trading for records related to its trading activities in Twitter shares, as well as communications between its traders and Twitter employees. The SEC is also seeking information from Twitter regarding its earnings release process and any interactions with Jump Trading executives.

根據紐約南區美國地方法院提交的法庭文件，美國證券交易委員會已向 Jump Trading 發出傳票，要求其提供與 Twitter 股票交易活動以及其交易員與 Twitter 員工之間的通信相關的記錄。美國證券交易委員會也正在尋求 Twitter 提供有關其收益發布流程以及與 Jump Trading 高層互動的資訊。

The investigation is being closely watched by the financial industry, as it could have far-reaching implications for the regulation of insider trading. Insider trading, which occurs when someone uses material, non-public information to make a profit, is a serious offense under federal law. If the SEC finds evidence of such misconduct, Jump Trading and its executives could face severe penalties, including fines, asset seizures, and jail time.

這項調查受到金融業的密切關注，因為它可能對內線交易的監管產生深遠的影響。根據聯邦法律，內線交易是指有人利用重大非公開資訊牟利時發生的嚴重犯罪行為。如果 SEC 發現此類不當行為的證據，Jump Trading 及其高層可能會面臨嚴厲處罰，包括罰款、資產扣押和監禁。

Twitter has denied any wrongdoing and has pledged to cooperate with the SEC's investigation. In a statement released today, the company said: "We are committed to operating with the highest ethical standards and fully support the SEC's efforts to ensure the integrity of the markets."

Twitter 否認有任何不當行為，並承諾配合 SEC 的調查。該公司在今天發布的聲明中表示：“我們致力於以最高的道德標準運營，並全力支持 SEC 為確保市場誠信所做的努力。”

Jump Trading, a leading high-frequency trading firm, has also denied any involvement in insider trading. The firm has declined to comment on the specifics of the SEC's investigation but has stated that it has a rigorous compliance program in place to prevent its employees from engaging in unethical or illegal activities.

領先的高頻交易公司 Jump Trading 也否認參與任何內線交易。該公司拒絕就 SEC 調查的具體細節發表評論，但表示其製定了嚴格的合規計劃，以防止員工從事不道德或非法活動。

The SEC's investigation is expected to be lengthy and complex. Investigators must carefully review millions of trading records, analyze communications, and interview numerous individuals. Legal experts believe that it could take months or even years before the SEC reaches a conclusion.

美國證券交易委員會的調查預計將是漫長而複雜的。調查人員必須仔細審查數百萬筆交易記錄、分析通訊內容並採訪眾多個人。法律專家認為，SEC 可能需要數月甚至數年時間才能得出結論。

However, the investigation has already sent shockwaves through the financial industry. It has raised questions about the adequacy of current regulations and the ability of regulators to effectively prevent insider trading. The SEC's findings could lead to significant reforms in the financial markets, including stricter penalties for insider trading and increased oversight of high-frequency trading firms.

然而，這項調查已經在金融界引起了震動。這引發了人們對現行法規是否充分以及監管機構有效防止內線交易的能力的質疑。美國證券交易委員會的調查結果可能會導致金融市場進行重大改革，包括對內線交易進行更嚴格的處罰，並加強對高頻交易公司的監管。

Stay tuned for further updates on this developing story as the SEC's investigation continues.
