Sawyer is a U.S. Senator on the Senate Committee on Foreign Relations.  As a result of Sawyer’s position, he learns that several oil-producing countries are about to cut production of oil in order to increase the price of oil.  (The Committee was evaluating whether such an action would de-stabilize any U.S. interests in the region.)  Sawyer also recognizes that, as the price of oil rises, oil companies will profit from the price increase, including Big Oil Inc. (“BOI”).  Sawyer is not an officer, director or shareholder in BOI when he learns this information, but he buys stock in BOI before the information is announced publicly.  Once the information is announced, BOI’s stock skyrockets, and Sawyer makes a lot of money.  If, based upon these facts, Sawyer is prosecuted for insider trading, is Sawyer likely to lose or to prevail?
