The chart showing how much money the CEO has made off selling the stock.. wouldn't he run out of shares? It appears executives have sold over a billion dollars in 2024.

Makes you wonder if they heard these investigations were ongoing and figured they'd sell shares before lawsuits came and any potential dips in the company worth.

If so.. insider trading charges would be nice

CEOs are often compensated with stock, AFAIK.

Insider trading is almost a joke now, and about to become way more of one under the next few years of the SEC.

Yes with fines that lead than the profits... Nowadays charges are just used to seal the deal, see plebs, I settled with dady government, everything is cool.
