Dick, that is a good rhetorical question.:) I don't claim to have all the answers, but there are always different reasons for insider selling. IMO the selloffs "tend" to be heavier when a stock has been doing well. In this environment the insiders have made a lot of money on their options, and by selling they do not risk the possibility of a selloff in the relatively near future.

Besides, they can always get more options later.:)

"Although I still own a few SCE's, if the outlook for LRCX and CYMI is so good, why has there been so much selling by the insiders? (rhetorical question)"

I worry when the selling far exceeds the number of shares they've granted themselves via options over the full cycle.

I wish there was a way to chart how many options they had in the money vs time... or something like that. Bottom line is we shareholders still pay them too much via options.
