Amy, RE: I think the SEC should require the top-most execs to hold onto a certain percent of their stock. In the engineering world this is called, eating your own dog food. I prefer if an exec accumulates millions in shares because they have faithfully held onto a certain percent, but it seriously bugs me to see an exec dump all of his/her shares every single year. Doesn't build confidence. Makes you want to toss the guy/gal out. Heavens no, I don't think that the SEC should make such a requirement. And you give the reason why in the very next paragraph. If shareholders don't like what executive management is doing with his/her shares, they can indeed toss him/her out. There's no reason why the SEC has to be involved.
