Insider Transactions
In this case it appears two insiders have been granted options recently at price(s) considerably higher than what the stock is currently trading at. IMO If they want to take advantage of these options they've been given they need
to get the stock price higher than the option price. Possibly they will work harder at getting the stock price of
the company higher (in order to exercise the options), or they may know something that will most likely push
the stock price higher than the options are, and they can puchase more stock at a discount. The other shareholders
also gain as well with the increase in the price of the stock. However, sometimes the stock never reaches the
options price and they expire and never get used.
I like to believe that , Insider(s) would'nt be issuing stock options to themselves if they thought the stock price
was most likely going south. It would be counter to exercising them. Of course this is only my opinion.
Maybe the timing is related to the merger?
