The company's buying! ... Are the insiders?
Article Abstract:
Trading activities of insiders may negate a company's decision to buy back its own shares of stock. Corporate buybacks are widely practiced in the investment world when companies feel that their own shares have become solid investments. However, the case of Silicon Graphics illustrates that there are instances when insiders may sell shares instead of buying them as previously announced. Company buyback announcements, therefore, may not be always credible.
