But the stock trading approach is risky too. The NY Stock Exchange claims 
that they monitor every single brokerage account for suspicious activity. 
If you make money most of the time just before earning are announced for a 
handful of companies, they'll pick it up and cart you off to prison.

If you think about it for a second, you'll realize that doing such
a thing is a problem of the same magnitude as doing statistical
intrusion detection.
