<<What I am quite wondering is why AOL executives are selling large volume of AOL stocks in period that hurts the stock price the most. PS Andersson is selling $88M worth of AOL stocks!!!>> Steve Case bought 45% of the largest Pinapple joint in April-May, 1999, he must pay bill. Andersson bought minority stake in a SF based web whole sale joint in June-July 1999, he must pay bill. The senior VP who sold 700,000 shares with Steve Case became an owner of RedSkin in spring 1999, he must pay bill. Bob Pittman is up for something (maybe his daughter is up for a huge wedding?) Anyway, the reason for their sale maybe not because they see trouble in AOL ? AOL is $74 at the begining of 1999 YHOO is $124 at the begining of 1999 AMZN is $124 at the begining of 1999 DOJ is at the tail of MSFT and the trial may drag for 5-10 years, if anyone thinks MSFT will provide more 'evidence' to DOJ at this particular time, think again!
