Nope. Big-time insiders have to schedule sales like this ahead of time in order to avoid breaking insider trading laws. These guys get so many options they need to sell some in order to cover the taxes on the awards (or something like that; I'm not an accountant.) This happens all the time when AAPL is low, high, and medium.
It would be nice if MacRumors would write up some boilerplate to tack on to these stories to explain this.
No thanks. The less I hear about stocks and the disgusting stock market the better. Humanity should be ashamed over this world engine.
most all the top execs. a Apple are dumping large quantities of their stock...NOT A GOOD SIGN AT ALL.

You can try and smooth it over...nope.
They probably screamed when they heard about Carl Ichan buying his position in Apple.
Good thought, and they probably should -- but either way, you're still going to get lots of crap posts like this:

This guy should be payed ten times more !
He's so cool
He should get all the money in the universe together with all AAPL execs !
Just like Larry Ellison said, Apple won't be nearly as successful without Steve. Stick a fork in it... it's done.
(Coming from a long time Apple customer and Apple product enthusiast.)
They sold it a bit too early. AAPL will go to $650 before Xmas and $700 1st quarter next year.
So much Hate in here. Where was all the Hate Speak when Eric (remember the Cafe) Schmidt cashed in his stock a short time ago?
Ya think Phil, and Dan will do this: http://www.businessinsider.com/eric-schmidt-spent-15-million-on-a-new-york-penthouse-2013-7?op=1
If they do are they in some way less deserving because it's Apple Stock?
To many in here with MPD.![]()
Really? Guaranteed?

So Eric Schmidt is in an "open" marriage and is dating two women on the side? Clearly the guy has no personal morals in addition to having no business ethics. And people still trust Googal with their personal information?
What's with everyone reminiscing Steve all of a sudden? Like it or not, he's not coming back, and Apple is going to have to move on with or without him.
Reminds me of the analyst who said last year Apple stock would go to $ 1000 (when it was at $ 700). We all know what happened next.
