Kim,
Can you clarify for us what the rules are regarding foreign companies that are traded OTC? Naxos really isn't on an exchange, and I would like to know exactly what must be reported to the SEC.
If the insiders are required to report, then there must be some public documents available now showing insider trading in the last year. I personally haven't seen any, and I know that Dow Jones reports these on their wire service when they become public. Since I subscribe to Dow Jones, I already looked into this and found nothing. I can easily track insider info for US companies that trade on an exchange but I am not convinced that it is so easy to do for Naxos. Please clarify.
Also, regarding ACTUAL transactions by insiders, didn't we already determine that Jimmy John made something like 1000 trades a couple of years ago, with a net increase in shares indicating he was selling at market to buy stock options? To cut through the fat what that really means is that he is selling high and buying low and still maintaining his shares. He is profiting from the stock by trading the stock, which is exactly what I would expect anyone in his position to do, regardless of whether the playa is a field of dirt or the richest gold deposit in history. I would also expect that anyone on this thread who bought stock at $1 last summer would be selling at this level, because there is a good chance we will be trading lower at some point in the future. I would do it myself if I actually bought stock at that level but I am not as good at timing as others are.
Take care,
Doug |
