Found more insider selling - another 363,940 shares

insidertrader.com

The SEC filings aren't listed in calendar order - so I missed this one.

This was a Type S transaction (April 16 SEC filing). A Type S is an Open-Market Form 4 Sale. Shares were sold March 1-15, at an avg. of $7.99 for a total of $2,908,258.

The two Insiders selling were: U, U

U = Unknown. Usually the result of a form that was not filled in properly. [ Sorry that is what the code 'U' is given as in the key ].

That's it from me for today. You need a subscription to the above site for timely Insider trading information.

David.

David in Ontario - I make nothing of the insider trading other than someone needing the cash or taking profits from stock acquired at $2 or better. I can't tell you why the shares were sold by insiders here recently any more than I can explain why insiders sold over 700,000 shares of MSGI between Feb. 3 and March 15 for prices ranging between $4.98 and $11.00. Don't you know those insiders wish that they had those 700,000+ shares back now!

There wasn't a problem with MSGI when those 700,000 shares were traded during Feb. & March '99 and there are no problems with MSGI now. In two months, those insiders having sold @ $30 will be kicking themselves as well.

MSGI's current President & CEO, Jeremy Barbera hasn't sold a share, has filed to sell any stock, and has, instead, continued to accumulate MSGI stock. That I like.
