Insiders selling asnd : "Who has networking's inside track? It doesn't look like insiders at Ascend Communications (ASND) are planning to sell their company to Lucent Technologies (LU) anytime soon, even though rumors of some kind of combination between the two companies are a staple of Wall Street chatter. Ascend's name keeps coming up whenever analysts opine that Lucent needs to make a big purchase of a major Web networking company in order to compete head-to-head with Cisco Systems. But nine Ascend insiders sold almost 500,000 shares in November -- including a 100,000-share sale by the company's CEO. That's a big increase from October, when insiders sold just 66,000 shares. No insider sold in August or September. It's unlikely, I think, that insiders would be heavy sellers if they were planning a deal that could get them a big acquisition premium on their holdings. moneycentral.msn.com Mang
