Case: ASMLZoom: 30 July 2014
On July 30, ASML jumped 11% in half a trading day.
Dutch investment blogs were initially puzzled. Owlin
readers knew, though: Owlin carried the market-moving
news from an American trade letter 1h26m before Dutch
news sources picked it up (at which point the stock had
already climbed 7,5%).
Timeline:
13:04: Electronics Weekly reports significant
technological advance of ASML subsidiary Cymer Inc, a
company acquired by ASML last year. ASML shares start
creeping up about 20 minutes later
14:17: Dutch news site IEX asks ‘what is going on?’
14:30: Dutch website ‘deaandeelhouder.nl’ is the first to
re-report the news from Electronics Weekly
17:00: ASML closes up 11%

Case: Imtech – Frits & MacziolZoom: 31 January – 21 February
On February 18 to the 19th at midnight, Imtech announced a fraud
investigation at its Swiss daughter Fritz & Macziol. The next day Imtech
opened 6% lower. However, the news around the fraud investigation was
already on the streets for weeks. But no Dutch news source picked it up
until then.
Timeline:
31 January: Swiss blog inside-it.ch announced fraud investigation at
Imtech
03 February: Imtech announces improvement in Germany.
04/05 February: More Swiss sources are reporting on fraud investigation.
11/13 February: “Topman Imtech commissaris bij de NS”
19 February: Via an official press release Imtech announces fraud
investigation, many sources publish the press release. Imtech drops 6%.
