I wonder if the Financial post is talking about the same thing of the Globe...

Globe says director sold stock ahead of share decline

Newbridge Networks Corporation NNC
Shares issued 173,670,862 Feb 17 close $33.45
Wed 18 Feb 98 In the News
The Globe and Mail reports in its Wednesday, February 18, edition that
Newbridge Networks insider and director Peter Madsen sold more than US$5.7
million worth of stock almost two months before the firm shocked analysts
with a warning that its third quarter results will be significantly lower
than expected. The Globe's Lawrence Surtees writes that Mr Madsen is the
fifth Newbridge director in less than a year to report substantial insider
trades ahead of share price declines posted by the company. Mr Madsen sold
162,839 shares or 40 per cent of his holding of 408,027 shares on December
10 1997, according to the latest insider trading report filed with the OSC,
at an average price $35.35. That was well before Newbridge stunned
investors on February 3 with an earnings shortfall warning. The warning
triggered a 23 per cent, single day decline in Newbridge's share price.

If we they are talking about the same shares, that was a couple of months ago already and I don't think that there is something to panic here.
