Most of the times in the stock market, an investor is in the dark regarding the causes of movement in a particular stock. Investors come to know about the causes like insider trading, law suits, revision in earnings etc. much after the market has reacted and absorbed the news.
Only few people have the right information at the right time in stock trading. As a result, most of the investors are at the receiving end in this market.
