    Even if it’s not worth it to you personally, it’s still a good deed to sell stock in a company when their CEO does something like this. Every sell sends a small message.

      I assumed it’d be good for them in some way if I sold (I don’t understand stocks). If it sucks for them even a little I’m selling.

        it’s not a wash, because you sell for a different price than you bought at.

          I’m not saying it’s a wash in terms of price. Instead, I’m saying it doesn’t send a message through some tally of sells for the day, because buys and sells are at a 1:1 ratio.
