Kant or utilitarianism assignment

For example, if the insider information was good news for the company, it would cause a rise in stock prices and all investors could benefit from it. If the information was to be shared with all the stockholders and everyone could make a profit, it could be deemed a positive that maximized everyone’s happiness. If the information was not shared and only a handful f investors were able to take advantage it would be immoral because it didn’t produce happiness for all.

Another example would be if an insider came to possess information that would potentially put the company out of business, would it be immoral for this insider to pass it along to a rival? This could potentially save jobs that would create more happiness for all. The problem with utilitarianism in this aspect is that it leaves room for immoral actions to be considered moral based on a result and not on the character of the action itself.
