Postyle - But they are killing the upward potential that the stock was showing. Hopefully they will give us something next week to munch on and forget the whole insider selling saga. When options are given as compensation instead of salary (rather sometimes the top execs take these options to align their interest with the shareholders), disposing those options certainly says about what they think about the immediate future of the company (even short term becomes important when a so called "watershed" event has taken place). The juice is being sucked out of the news. Why should the street beleive in the potential of the news when the insiders seem to have doubts (hopefully I am wrong....please correct me if I am wrong).
Do I have a point? I dont know....just thinking out loud I guess. If anyone read it to this point...thanks for your patience.

Good luck All! We Need it...we should also see a payoff day.

While it's true that last year's insiders sales were at prices lower than today, that is more a function of the fact that the share price wasn't this high last year but for two or three days. The fact that insiders took such good advantage of the spikes there were is uncanny in itself, for heavens sake, look at the chart and the dates of insiders sales, amazing!

I believe the reason the price is higher now than last year is because of the expectations of the Ericsson settlement. The fact that the price didn't go even higher shows the market is not as pleased with this settlement as we were led to believe it would be. To me, that signals the end of this run but everyone should make up their own mind about this.

As always, time will tell,
