Stevie,

Yes, Michael sold some stock, about 0.6% (zero point six per cent) of his holdings, not counting any options he may have received or exercised since April. If you would go back and read the entire thread, you would find out that Michael
a) is charitable
b) diversifies (e.g. RMBS), don't you?
c) has major property tax liabilities
d) certainly has major IRS liabilities
e) provides start-up capital for companies trying to go public, or expand.
f) sometimes needs cash to exercise his options

Bottom line, do you really think that approximately 1/2 of 1% is enough reason for you to bail? The 99.4% he kept is enough reason for me to stay long for a long time. I will admit that the news dis-services have hyped the item, and failed to provide context for their viewers/readers/listeners.

Just a different perspective. Regards, 3
