I am probably getting it wrong but here is my question regarding insider trading. What if I bought a bunch of loans and it is experiencing a certain level of defaults. Now I am thinking about buying a similar package so I already know the likelihood of loss. Would it not be a mathematic calculation to buy CDS "insurance" if the rates are cheaper than my expected losses? Is that "insider" information? After LTCM, I am just so skeptical of these fancy instruments invented by geniuses.
