Fellow news junkie... great bit on NPR this morning about CEO's of high-flying tech companies dumping their stock in 1999 and 2000. The picked on the founders of ARBA in particular (each of the 6 made over $100 million per the report). They also interview the CEO of EELN who, at one time, was worth $400 million. The stock closed at $1.29 today but has been as high as $74. The CEO said he believed in his company and backed it up by not selling any of his stock and by extending the company a line of credit.

One of the interviewees was asking the SEC to impose harsher rules on insider sells; especially on non-profitable companies.

Great report that really left me thinking about govt. control vs. free markets.
