The divergent lives of a championship golfer, a high-rolling gambler and a
billionaire investor have collided in a federal insider trading
investigation.
.
Federal authorities are examining a series of well-timed trades made by
the golfer Phil Mickelson and the gambler William T. Walters, people
briefed on the investigation said, focusing on trading in two different
stocks. The authorities are also questioning what role, if any, the
investor Carl C. Icahn may have had in sharing information about one of
the stocks: the consumer products company Clorox.
.
Mr. Mickelson, a three-time winner of the Masters golf tournament and one
of the countrys highest-earning athletes, placed his Clorox trade in 2011,
the people briefed on the investigation said. Mr. Walters, an owner of
golf courses who is often considered the most successful sports bettor in
the country, made a similar trade about that time, the people added.
.
Mr. Icahn, a 78-year-old billionaire and one of the best-known investors
in the world, was mounting a takeover bid for Clorox around the time that
Mr. Mickelson and Mr. Walters placed their trades.
.
The F.B.I. and Securities and Exchange Commission, which are leading the
inquiry along with federal prosecutors in Manhattan, are examining whether
Mr. Icahn leaked details of his Clorox bid to Mr. Walters, the people
briefed on the investigation said. One theory, the people said, is that
Mr. Walters might have passed that information to Mr. Mickelson.
.
Around the time of the trading, the S.E.C. sent Mr. Icahn a routine
request for information about his dealings in Clorox, the people briefed
on the matter said. Federal authorities, whose investigation has dragged
on for more than two years without yielding definitive evidence of insider
trading, are also examining phone records to see whether Mr. Walters spoke
to Mr. Icahn shortly before the trades. Mr. Icahns bid for Clorox
ultimately failed. Mr. Mickelson, Mr. Walters and Mr. Icahn have not been
accused of any wrongdoing. Mr. Icahn, even if he did leak secret
information about his firms intentions with Clorox, may have done so
legally. It would be illegal if he breached a duty of confidentiality to
his own investors.
.
In a separate strand of the investigation, federal authorities are looking
into trading in Dean Foods that has no apparent connection to Mr. Icahn,
the people briefed on the matter said. Mr. Walters and Mr. Mickelson
placed the trades around August 2012, according to the people, just before
the food and beverage company announced its quarterly earnings and a
public offering of stock for one of its subsidiaries. The authorities are
investigating whether Mr. Walters had a source inside the company itself
and whether others who know Mr. Walters may have traded on the information
as well.
