Oh sweet summer child.

The bankers sold most of the shares before it happened, because they knew it was coming.



Do you know what a Rule 10b5-1 plan is?


I do, thank you very much!

Just shows that they knew even early SVB was fucked. I meant it was clear SVB was fucked since JPOW raised rates and SVB had dog shit assets on their HTM.

But instead of doing something they kept it afloat until they sold their shares which took about month to let it fail after they cashed out.

Right, that is the only reason why an insider would ever sell stock.

Here's the CEO's latest Form 4: https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/719739/0001562180230...

He exercised stock options to keep his ownership roughly the same at about 26 Million USD. Wonder why he didn't cash that out.

What should they have done? How did they manage to keep aflot? Why did they stop?
