The SEC doesn’t do jack shit about anything. The SEC are toothless pretend watchdogs created by and staffed by former stock marketers who exist for the sole purpose of making the public think there is oversight and accountability.
It is the stock market version of the police’s internal affairs.
Martha Stewart’s case was two decades ago. How many people have served jail time for fraud based on the SEC since then?
Musk got the regular slap on the wrist pretend punishment that the SEC does to appear legitimate. He also continues to openly manipulate stocks with no further accountability.
I don’t assume it is zero, but I assume it is far fewer than it should be since Musk has been openly manipulating the market without any punishment for years.

Tell that to Martha Stewart and Elon Musk.
SEC isn’t a savior, but they do enforce the law when it’s blatant.

then just say that rather than asking “how many” because apparently no number would be high enough to meet your standard.
I’m sorry I might have hurt the SEC’s feelings. Will you ever forgive me?
Good ol’ Lemmy maturity.
