RE: RE: RE: insider selling
RE: RE: RE: insider selling I think options are more complicated than that. They have strike prices, expiry dates, etc. Plus there's tax implications. May be easier to take the money, pay the tax, (& get more options). I remember the JDS people having to pay gains on money they never got, because the optioned shares were considered income at the execution date & some people kept them, then they went down, and could only claim a capital loss.
If it was me, I'd take the tax hit & use borrowed money to buy shares so you write off carrying costs. Not that the so-called "sellers" here still own a lot of shares.
