Glen, two things want to clarify... THQI's insider selling is option related. THQI's executives receive specify amount of THQI option as an incentive. When he/she exercises the option, he/she can either pay the stock price minus option premium to keep the stock or sell the stock immediately and realize the profit (as bonus). In many cases, one will sell it immediately because it require no investment/cash and risk from the option holder. If one decide to keep it, he/she must infuse his/her own money into the stock. THQI beat all whisper numbers. If not the dilution (GameFX and options for the executives), THQ actually made over a buck for past quarter. This is amazing for a any company from THQ or uncle DELL and it is a dream for those internet stocks. The cc is not exciting and didn't help to clear up the fear of WCW but the fact is that THQ has four great years under hands of Brian Farrel. THQI is not alone for its miserable stock performance, the sell-off is more like industry-wide. THQ, the best in the group happened to be the one which punished the most. Historically it is also the one which rebounded the quickest and sharpest. How long did it take THQI to rebound from $9.x to $33? The only advice I can say is "be patient, you'll be rewarded.". Now can someone tell me why THQ's inventory jumped so much in Q4? aC
