This is, in most cases, a financial felony, and a generally dick thing to do, unless you are only doing it to make it look as if the free market is rising, in which case it is patriotic. Those men are heroes, who are willing to commit a felony to make capitalism look like it's not broken. This is what will eventually defeat socialism (see Barack Hussein Obama) and evil in America. Men clinging so hard to their American, capitalist values that if they can't make capitalism work, they are at least going to make it look like it works. Not to be confused with a Fonzi scheme, which is a financial felony committed with a shitty haircut (see Rod Blagojevich)
