When the CEO owns what , 2K shares and isn't buying, as well as all of the *new* senior staff, then it leads to speculation. The only smart thing Myron did was reprice his options. He lost 20% of his options, but the reprice was greater than a 20% reduction, so he came out ahead. (This is of course in reference to his stock trades, which I understand, the SEC still has an open investigation.) Yes, while I will get flames from certain individuals, you should check out the insider trades. Only Stonebraker is selling, and it looks like its all a scheduled sell. He still owns a sh*tload of stock and I'm sure his intentions are to divest his holdings. All I am doing is stating the facts. (You can see the info off of Yahoo!) IMHO, it would be nice for Bob to make a token purchase of 10K or more shares. (Thats under 60K depending on transaction costs.) 15K shares would be enough to be taken as a bullish sign. -Mikey -- #include <std_disclaimer.h> /* Mike Segel (MS385) */ #include <No_Spam.h> #ifdef OFFENDED_BY_CONTENT The author takes no responsibility for this post.
