1.) What is your opinion about the video, explain!
I feel like it's unfair for the Senate and Congressmen to be able to buy stocks. They have insider information that gives them an unfair advantage of the public. This defeats the purpose of how the stock market works. If they can have this information then it should be fair for everyone else to have that same information, therefore Martha Stewart shouldn't have gone to prison for the information she had.

2.) What can you do about your opinion?
I can spread my opinion to people around me and hope they will also believe the same thing. This could cause enough people to come together to actually make a difference and put a stop to it.


3.) What is insider trade, what was the information that caused Martha Stewart to go to prison?
Insider trade is when you get insider information from a business about whether a stock will go up or down.  Martha Stewart found out that a certain business was about to sell all their stocks, she went to prison for lying about her infomation.

4.) What is Black Friday and when did it get its name, what is Cyber Monday?
