RE: insider selling Insiders will only buy for ONE reason, but they can sell for a number of possible reasons, so when an insider sells I am rarely concerned. After all, for many of these guys selling off stock options that they've recieved is the only way they take home some money. What would you do if much of your wage came from employee stock options? Christmas is coming up and I'm sure they have gifts to buy for family and friends.
The issue I have with the insider sell off is they are grant of rights. And based on investopedia "The idea behind stock option grants is to give employees the incentive to align their interests with that of the stockholders. In the past, however, some stock option grants have been set at such low levels that executives ended up enriching themselves, not the shareholders." Unfortunately for us, this seems to be what the executives are doing.
Merry Christmas to us! Yeah that was sarcasm.
