A former technology analyst at expert networking firm Primary Global Research LLC avoided jail time on Thursday after a judge praised his “very substantial assistance” in cooperating with a government insider-trading investigation.
Bob Nguyen, 34, who pleaded guilty in January 2011 to leaking confidential corporate information to hedge funds, received two years of probation from U.S. District Judge Jed Rakoff in federal court in New York.
