I've wondered the same thing. My guess is she is cutting a deal. That is the only explanation for the Wells Notice 30 day period coming and going in November. The strength in the stock seems to imply that a deal is in the works. If she cuts a deal, I'm sure she would want to stay as CEO of her own company. Otherwise, no deal. That may be the sticking point. A fine is no big deal given her resources. Three million shares are still short. Amazing.

One other thing about a settlement with the SEC. It will take an approval by the new Chairman. I haven't been following the problems with that agency and don't know where they are in replacing Harvey.
