RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:WE KNOW WHY ALLEN, VP IR AND BIG RECO S/HAREHOLDER LEFT - The way you put it does seem very fishy (;)), but I don't think that you can call it manipulation considering he did not know what he was going to find at the time of the deal. Even if this was his plan all along, he took a big risk, which turned out very good for him.
I would only start becoming worried if he sells off large portions (as in 50%+) of his Reco interest, because that would show he is not confident in the play anymore
Are insiders actually even allowed to sell shares at this moment?
I think his move was a genious one, allowing him to 150x money without losing anyone any money (well unless you bought in at 10CAD and sold afterwards). You should not be jealous on that, instead be happy if you are able to 3-5x your money on this olat with just having to do some reading.
