I guess we are arguing about things that we cannot find out about at this time. I'm burned out on CUBE buyout rumors even though CUBE is a good buyout candidate. I think that most watchers would agree that CUBE probably has discussed buyouts with potential suitors in the past, which would have precluded insider trading during that time and according to you for three months after. Even viewing all of this information in the best possible light, I cannot get excited that a buyout is about to happen, which I think is what you are implying. Yes, the lack of activity is strange. No, it doesn't get me very excited. Nevertheless, it bears watching -- and thanks for montitoring the insider activity.

BS I stand by my statement that based on NO INISDER ACTIVITY since Nov. of 98, something is suspicious. Is it time to short?? Patience is a virtue. It was only 6 weeks ago this thread was moaning about CUBE not making the quarter and releasing poor sales figures to analysts (remember when it hit 26). CUBE's weathered the quake (it seems I misjudged the impact on this) and may see more weakness with a rate hike but why would an insider sell now when he sees the companys strategy and efforts starting to pay off. Why exercise today @ 40ish if you can put it off for a year and sell @ $60 (or higher). We can still see $34 on a pullback but risk of 15% vs. 50% reward. With higher upside and only lower downside if we have a complete market meltdown why sell today. Remember this is america where everyone borrows anyway . Tim
