Paul - There are other issues WRT options. Given that the employee could exercise the options any time after vesting, holding them to expiration is a strong statement of faith in the company. Another key point is that someone who has been with a company for a long time and has had his or her contribution recognized by option grants over the years may have a disproportionate amount of net worth tied up in the company's stock, and a little prudent diversification is only sensible. Like Freud said - 'sometimes a cigar is only a cigar'. Sometimes a stock sale is just a part of general financial planning and not a statement about anything else.
