The stock hit 114.70 yesterday. He cost himself over $100k with bad timing. But what's a measly 100k to this stud. Stock will probably start to tank now that he's got his.

And here is the REST of the story:

On 2/1/2015, Trudeau disposed of (gave away) 3,440 shares worth $364,000, and on 1/2/2015 he disposed of 1,227 shares worth $118,970, and on 12/3/2014 he disposed of 1,657 shares worth $151,185 AND on 12/18/2014 he sold 13,831 shares worth $1,288,634. That's a total of $4,789,622 since early December. A million here, a million there, so nobody notices.

And you should see the board members that are selling out.

The company car thing was just to cut costs and drive up the price of the stock.

If you think Trudeau is not looking to dump this company on someone, think again. If you're not out, you'd better get out. If you just hired on, you have made the biggest mistake of your professional life.

Do the math folks.

100% agree with you! The signs are obvious! Why doesn't everyone get this? Everything is short term planning, including the upcoming meeting. This is corporate greed at its finest. Everything they have done are fake smoke screens to drive up the stock and then dump it and leave all of us in the dust. I don't know how Trudeau can even show his face at the meeting and get up on that stage. How can anyone look him in the eyes and respect him and believe anything he says?

If this is your rationale for a sale you have major flaws in your analysis for many many reason. The biggest reason is stock almost always rise by 15-20% automatically from an acquisition period. Many time it is more than that. If what you are saying was true it would be financially irresponsible for him to sell if he plans on selling the company based on tis very basic piece of information alone. Based on your rationale it just doesn't make any sense. This is just one reason of many others that I won't go into but it's by far the most obvious one.

I'm sure this is more geared towards Sr level Exec having to sell when they obtain a certain number of shares, by certain dates or when the stock reaches a certain price. In addition the recent buyback in shares gave all share holders a bigger percentage of the company therefore this could have triggered these folks hitting a level of ownership of the company that forced them to sell. In addition it could be strictly a financial move of selling when the price is high or they wanted the funds to invest elsewhere or to diversify themselves. I'm not wasting anymore time walking you through your "sky is falling" moment but you sound utterly ridiculous using this as your source for this company being put up for sale.

Lastly, keep in mind every company is for sale at any moment for right price. Good luck finding any company where this isn't a possibility.
 






Nice one Mark or Hugh or Stacy or any one else making a huge profit. Will sell my shares on monday morning frst thing. Give me a break with ownership this is a house of cards a d somebody finally started counting. Not blaming him or antyone else, take the money and run. My beef is the amount of damage done to others that I think are just a little more needyfor a good job and some sort of stability.

Having said that does anyone really believe anything senior management ever says?

Your posts have outed you. You have as much integrity as the seaziest lawyer in the world. Go back into your hole where you climbed out of because the truth is, you can't even say this company isn't going to be bought. No one knows. You are trying to persuade people for what? They have made good decisions here and there is a great future here? Yeah right. i really would be surprised to find out that you are SC. All we can go back on is actually facts and the facts remain that they have made very poor decisions here all short time frame decisions.
 






This is scary news and based on certain decisions, it does seem that there isn't a bright future here. It seems like every decision is just being fixed with band aids as they know it's almost over. It would be very hard to trust anyone from leadership now.

keep drinking the kool aid.

Not Mark Hugh or Stacy. What I am trying to say is your rationale for Mark selling is counter intuitive to this place being acquired in the near future. In fact it's just the opposite. If the plans were to set this place up to be acquired in the next 3, 6, 12 months it would be foolish to sell so many shares before an acquisition is announced or even in the works. Shares spike significantly even on the rumor a company will be acquired.

I am not arguing this place has a bright future or not...that is another debate. My point is most of the mgt decisions here point to this place not being acquired in the near future. You don't sell massive amount of shares, make two large acquisitions ($6.5 billion total), with one being extremely risky and controversial in the short term (Questcor) and look for someone to acquire you until you have had time to show possible suitors the risky acquisitions are working and they are profitable. You reasoning just doesn't make any business sense at all.

This is not drinking kool-aid but M&A and business 101.

Would you just shut the hell up? No on wants to hear from you. You are a morning idiot. Are you part of the Trudeau family? They are all honest you know.
 






Get the M&A 101 but my take is the stock isn't worth what it's at. The numbers are all myths and not reflective of what is really there. In selling he is getting his money out before it goes the other way. The sleazy analysts that went in high need to cover their butts sotheirpushing it higher. Not sure they believe what they're saying. For a CEO to sell shares is normal everyday activity but any large sale would definitely raise red flags. Most of us here see what's going on and it just doesn't match what analysts are saying. Where is all this extra cash coming from? Not really in sales if one believes only 1/10 of what is written.

Long story short it smells from my end just like all the other penny pinching decisions that are being made that impct directly profit but don't increase sales. Questcor's management team is just as sneaky theyhoodwinked MT into buying them at a huge upcharge meaning they made obscene amounts of money, first ith their huge price increase then the sale.

BTW not blaming MT for taking the money it's his and he should profit from it. I am a conspiracy theorist because things don't happen in business as we have seen over the years. Tax savings increase profit but then in the 3rd year what happens?

Let's put it this way I'm not buying whatever it is he and his cronies are selling nor whatever they say. When trust in management is lost by most accounts by the vast majority who have seen the rain fall before it's a matter iof time before the street catches on.
 






What this could be signaling is an expected deal being retracted. Look at what happened to Astra Zeneca in the two days after Pfizer bought Hospira. AZN stock dropped nearly 5 bucks.

With all the MNK stock MT owns, 5 bucks a share would be a lot of money.

You can bet on one thing for sure: MT is not looking out for YOU!
 
























Spoken like a true sore loser who can't win an argument based on facts. CP at its finest!

Not correct. No one wants to hear your trash or lies. If you are quick to defend and are happy, then you shouldn't be trolling this thread at all. I mean why the hell are you on here? Seriously?

To make this much simpler, you are just a douche. A douche who doesn't have any supportive facts themselves.
