I don't think there's any law against using material non-public information unless it's illicitly obtained. This is a frequent theme of Matt Levine's Bloomberg column that's often mentioned on HN.

Why would anyone ever trade unless they had material non-public information? The point of having markets is so such information becomes public through prices, isn't it? Conversely, if you don't have it, you're purely gambling aren't you?

"Not legal advice" though.
