RE: DealMolikai got the information from a Power Systems Supplier.
Information from on the ground sources is not insider trading. People on the ground sometime observe activities that indicate forthcoming events. It is not always reliable but can sometimes be accurate depending on what the activity noted is.
For example, new hires or heavy equipment coming on to a property. Over flying geophysical survey craft. Return to work notices mailed to workers.
Such information can be valuable but it has to be weighted carefully.
