I am talking about the market in general. There has been massive insider selling in the market and very little insider buying.

The following sequence has played out many times before...

1. stock rises for months on end
2. stock rise attributable mainly to financial hijinx or unrealistic/fraudulent glowing forecasts.
3. insiders/execs unload their millions upon unsuspecting public when the stock is near the high.
4. fraudulent forecasts don't unfold or financial hijinx are exposed.
5 stock plummets in value leaving the general public with huge losses.

APTM is a microcap example of such a scam...

Markets should to collapse this year.. But it won't be an easy fall.

The most scammish companies like ole Commerce One (remember that one?) follow a standard pattern. They fly upward on pure hype (helped by short squeezes), keep flying upward... then execs cash out options for millions. and now that inside officers are filthy rich, they get lazy and defiant and careless.. then results suffer, stock plummets etc leaving the ceiling buyers broke.
