Legality on pulling pranks to manipulate stock market?

Investor summaryNeutral

Author jokes about market manipulation legality after causing a lobby scene in Meta glasses, coincidentally followed by a stock surge.

Post body

I am sort of ashamed to admit last year, I walked into a company head office (overseas on vacation) and began yelling at the front desk employees to release their product (while i was wearing my META glasses). It was a full on Karen moment on my part for harassing those poor front desk employees, and causing a scene for my 92 subscribers... but I thought it would be funny in the moment.

However, later that same day they made a big announcement, and my stock substantially increased the next day. It could have been a coincidence, even probably was... regardless, I was still frightened that I may have manipulated the market inadvertently.

Anyways, it got me thinking what would the implications of me occupying a company lobby until I get what I want?
