Thanks for your post Victoria, << he planned to sell another 2.1 million shares worth about $24 million around August 21.> If my understanding is right, they announced the split on the 18th so: were they expecting a price increase of the stock to make more profit ? This could probably influence the stock price tomorrow. Au revoir Jean-Robert

Mr. Dell's sales totaled less than 1% of his holdings. Anyone that feels this is a huge amount of stock is out-of-touch with reality. Mr. Dell, and the other insiders, have needs for large amounts of cash (after all, he doesn't live in a garage apartment). It is my understanding that he has about $2 billion in outside investments. Don't forget his options compensation makes up for a great amount of this sale. He's nobody's fool. I am not concerned at all about his sales. I'd be concerned if he weren't moving the money around! Regards, LoD

VG & ALL: On National Business Review (NBR) tonight, Paul Kangasa (sp?) said that Dell sold off today due to a rumor on the Street that executives, including Michael Dell, were selling stock. It turns out to be true. Does anyone know why the sale at this time? Here's the link: biz.yahoo.com Stock Bull

Insider Sales... Dr. Victoria, That report looks to me like a scummy, baseless short stunt to try to knock the stock down... Dell and his wife Susan sold 1.25 million shares valued at more than $108 million on May 26 thru 28. For cryin' out loud -- that's three months old news already. It's been on Yahoo for a long time now. biz.yahoo.com he planned to sell another 2.1 million shares worth about $249 million around August 21. I say "baseless", because (although it's essentially true) please notice the timing. He sells some stock every quarter after earnings announcement. If he really wanted to maximize his return, he'd sell BEFORE the earnings announcement, during the usual price run-up. But that might very well impact the stock price. So he sells AFTER the announcement, and announces/files it ahead of time. Once again, he filed and announced ahead of time his intention. DELLish, 3.
