Think it’s all roses over at Apple these days? Sure the stock’s flying high (kinda) and you should buy and hold right? Not if you’re an Apple executive you shouldn’t.

– Jonathan Rubinstein (Senior VP) sold shares worth over US$213M
– Philip W. Schiller (Officer) sold shares worth over US$39M
(including a planned sale of over $5.8M)
Also take note of the insider selling by Arthur Levinson (Director), Sina Tamaddon (SVP), Tim Cook (Officer) and Avie Tevanian (Officer). Now that’s a lot of iPods.
