    Are you sure that the "investor" sold GE Sept 20 Puts @ .20 and not Dec 20 Puts ?
    If so, exactly when?     Reply

    its all a self serving scam.the new word should be "suckerholder&quo... stockholder.the ceo's & bod's are just selfserving & nobody mentions the suckerholder in the boardroom. pay should only be by dividend fro shares bought by management & bod's & no options.that would straighten things out real quick.utopia?

    Jackooo...you are exactly correct. The companies send out proxies, etc., as a "feel good" exercise, not something that will result in any change of directors, management, etc. The mutual funds are not doing their jobs when they simply go along to get along with extreme compensation packages being set up by compensation committees. Any time a compny is losing money badly, but gives top executives major pay raises, something is wrong inside the management of the companies. Reply

    Years ago when it became so obvious to me that boards of directors were nothing more than good old boys clubs, rubber stamps for corporate executives and every bit as greedy, I began to look in the proxy for the identities of the Compensation Committee. Every proxy I have voted since I have withheld my vote for those committee members and have encouraged others to do the same. May never have an affect but at least its something I can do to express my dissatisfaction... Reply

    I have both T and CMCSA. I notice their executive teams are paid the most. That's a shame from these two losers.
    The SEC can make up lots more rules & I can vote against the board but unless the mutual fund companies vote their shares against the boards, we individual share holders might as well forget proxy voting.
    I cannot understand why the funds don't take the reigns? It is their clients that are losing money. It is true that most of the clients are dumb and lazy regarding financial savy but gezz. You would think the funds would do something, no??     Reply

    giving the people on the board hefty 'compensation' really amounts to a bribe by the top execs to keep the big exec $ coming, no matter what. Warren Buffet does it right, when it comes to this. good article. thank you. Reply

    BigBand's Revenue Miss is Latest Networking Market Data Point [view article]
    You mentioned that BBND lost 25% in Friday's trade. If only that were the case. I actually was checking the stock Friday morning with plans to sell, unrelated to the downgrading I was unaware of. It fell from over $9.00 to $6.00 overnight! There was no opportunity to sell during "Friday's trading". And the drop represented at least a full 30%. Very disconcerting. I sold Monday and took the loss... Reply

    looks like they goosed the stock prior to the lockout expiration--anyone going to investigate? Reply

    "Some of these ongoing deployments have required more software customization and integration than originally expected. In other words, the company underestimated the effort and the timeline."

    Companies always try to claim that revenue shortfalls are just a matter of timing. I'd steer clear.     Reply

    Applying this metric across the board is a little weird. You need much better knowledge of these businesses to make this kind of judgement.

    Analysts React To Tellabs Buyout Rumor [view article]
    I ran across this article which would help support the rumor of Tellabs buyout. It looks as though a few of the top executives from each company know each other very well from previous work. Especially former AT&T top execs Ianna and Hesse, who now serve on the Tellab and Nokia boards respectively. www.newsvisual.com/new...

    This intimate relationship at the top of each company could in fact help to drive this deal, so I don't know if I would be selling the stock just yet.     Reply
