CFO dumps stock at a high of $87.00, which was the 9:30:00 price and also the highest point of the regular session. $19.8M of the $20.1M came on the morning of the 18th. What 10b5-1 trading plan begins the aggressive selling during the first minute of the trading session following the company's biggest pump PR to date?

WTF is going on out there?

@htsfhickey Fred, here is the real story behind his purchases, and everyone missed it because nobody thought to look at the raw data. It's quite incredible (desperate, and possibly bordering on stock manipulation). See for yourself.
