By far the most extreme Indicator last week, surpassing the high number from the prior week, was the "legal" Insider Sales of officers - zooming from 163 Sellers to 1 Buyer, up to 235! This replaced the old multi-year high of 198:1. Ironically, the last time these numbers were so high was at the BEGINNING of the March '09 rally, and again in July '09 as the rally resumed in earnest.
