Has TCTV popped up on your short list this weekend? OTOH LU broke Friday - looking at the DEC100c for Monday.

Roger et al, Does anyone know the rules governing insider sales and press announcements? I know insiders can't sell w/in 30days of earnings, but am curious about selling and pr releases. How about an announcement regarding a forthcoming IPO? Thanks.
