Scott Marsh is a research analyst for a brokerage firm following the computer industry. Joe Perry is Marsh's former college roommate and is the head of technology for Mercury, a large software company. Perry informs Marsh on Tuesday that in two days the company will be making an official announcement that its release of its newest version of its software will be moved up one month, from October 1 to September 1. The announcement will be surprising to the industry and will likely be met with skepticism because the company has had trouble meeting release dates in the past. Perry assures Marsh that he is certain that they will meet the September 1 date. Marsh considers Perry to be very honest and highly competent. Marsh should: A. wait until the public announcement is made, then release a report explaining that he believes the company will make the release date, disclosing that one of the reasons for his opinion is Perry is a friend of his. B. immediately put out a report recommending the stock, but waiting until the official announcement to state his reasons. C. produce his research report in two days based solely on the official announcement, not taking into consideration the information from Perry. |
