          Well…you unload. Wait for the temporary price hit to the stock, then buy as it inevitably returns to the consequence free level it was at before.

            Yeah that makes sense, I suppose. They would try to turn it into a profit-making opportunity. I don’t know how accurate this is or if I’m even reading it correctly, but it seems insider stock sales picked up in the last three months so maybe you’re right.
