Barb...looks like we are closer here than first appeared... I was responding to MKC posts to me this morning.. Sorry, for any gender/plural confusion...my comments were meant specifically... MD maintains well over 90% of his net worth in his company's stock...That is good enough for me...I maintain, again, that it is "unreasonable" to think his selling of 1, 2,3,4% of his stock is any DEFINITIVE indication of trouble......looks like you agree....I agree with your comment that one might (would probably) take a bit more risk if one sat in the CEO chair and could see what he sees...but would you keep over 90% of your net worth tied up in one company (any company)..I wouldn't...As Dana Carvey would say "Wouldn't be prudent".....even if one disagrees here, there is no definitive here..(as some would claim) As always, my objection is to make money, although it thinks its great when others make money (too)...I don't get any particular thrill out of zero-sum games..although there will certainly be some of that (always)..Good luck to you. Hope we both win.
