David, re:insiders. They are legally allowed to trade at any time (The SEC does not regulate when insiders can trade). However most companies restrict insider trading to certain periods, usually starting 3 days after earnings are released, and concluding the last day preceding the final month of the quarter. Or inversely, the "blackout" period starts on the first day of the final month (June 1st for TAVA) and continues until 3 days after earnings are released. There are numerous examples of insiders trading in the so called "blackout" period. This usually indicates a company with poor internal controls ... like ACLY for example! Regards, Bill
