Hello insider trading !

Aren't senior executives legally required to submit their trading
plans well in advance of any stock sale? That certainly seemed to
be the case at my last employer.

From the article:> None of the filings lists the transactions as
being part of 10b5-1 pre-scheduled trading plans.

FTA: "None of the filings lists the transactions as being part of
10b5-1 pre-scheduled trading plans."Anyone with more knowledge: How
normal is this sort of behaviour?

Pretty normal. Their lawyers likely said that as long as they
reported in (via Form 3 and Form 4) then it would be complaint
enough.So this was still transparency, and its just fodder for
reporters to debate about, because without the Form 3 and Form 4
regulation, you would never know.Cost benefit analysis.

So, does this count as insider trading? My intuition says 'yes'.
But my intuition about a thing and what the law says don't always
match.
