Questions 1:

While at a bar in the financial district after work,Ellen Miffitt,CFA,overhears several employees of a competitor discuss how they will manipulate down the price of a thinly traded micro cap stock’s price over the next few days.Miffitt’s clients have large positions of this stock so when she arrives at work the next day she immediately sells all of these holdings.Because she had determined the micro cap stock was suitable for all of her accounts at its previously higher price,Miffitt buys back her client's original exposure at the end of the week at the new,lower price.Which CFA Institute Standards of Professional Conduct did Miffitt least likely violate?
A、Market Manipulation

【Answer to question 1】B
【analysis】
B is correct as Miffitt has not violated the confidentiality standard that involves informa tion about former,current,and prospective clients.
A is incorrect because even though she did not initiate the market manipulation,Miffitt added to the stock’s price movement when she sold into a declining market particularly with thinly traded stocks which can be easily influenced by changes in the volume of activity.By repurchasing the shares for her clients she is seeking to take advantage of the manipulation and is in violation of Standard II(B).
C is incorrect as she has attempted to benefit her clients by trading on information that could affect the value of the micro cap stock and as such would be classified as material nonpublic information.Information that is known regarding orders for large trades before they are executed is considered material nonpublic information
