Everybody is bottom fishing except insiders, so what do they know?

Insiders are accelerating their selling, and to the highest level
since the bear market began in the average stock on 4/21/98,
and since the 10/7/97 start for the BAAC Supercycle bear market,
period as I've repeatedly reported before.

It cannot be overstated how incredibly bearish the sophisticated
versus unsophisticated sentiment situation is today. Without
risk of overstatement, the US stock market is more over owned by
unsophisticated holders compared to those who now know better,
and just want to get out at these well-below-the-high levels, than
at any time during more than four decades of US stock market
history in various indicators that measure these conditions. A
mass selling mood is sweeping over insiders collectively who
are in the most informed position to know that something is
deeply wrong with their particular company's prospects.

This is reflected by the problem of when derivatives expire and the
volatility premiums are apparently too high to renew the hedge
insurance. For example, institutional investors are deciding that
Cisco (our candidate for the bad-boy poster-child of the high-tech
excesses of the 1990s), has to sold **now**rather than at higher
levels when they were protected by their derivative hedges.

The crescendoing panic selling that this bear market will suffer
will shake Wall Street and Main Street investors to their roots -
beyond anything anybody alive today remembers. For this,
we have absolutely no doubt. No matter how bearish you have
been, you had better consider the implications of what these
indicators are saying about the current market's vulnerability
to an unprecedented stop-loss selling panic.
