they might have exercised their options recently just prior to releasing info that they did well profitwise (albiet with a lot of help from FASB with reagrd to relaxation of accounting rules about mark to market etc) but with the intention of offloading the same with the ensuing price rise even if briefly. a neat killing to make if buying at discounted prices like most employees get if in their contracts.I don't think many banking bosses would be exercising their options, with the catastophic fall in the share prices.bubblesmoney :hello:0 -

That would have realised a nice big loss for themselves.
Their Stock Options are not at any price they choose, they would have been at strikes 30-50% above where the market was trading.....I know you think these guys are theiving fraudsters....but they are not dumb !!!!'In nature, there are neither rewards nor punishments - there are Consequences.'0
