Very interesting little tidbit. Wonder why she's selling so much...must know something from her privileged status.

I just figured since she’s black, she’s not allowed to lose money on market trades. If she had a loss, that would be racist.

Well, she owns the company—so she probably knows everything about it.

But, when you own a company like that you cannot “just sell” whenever you want. There are blackout periods and restrictions on when you can buy and sell—it generally needs to be planned.

My guess is that this transaction was part of a standard sale of options that happens on a regularly scheduled basis.

You never go broke taking a profit.

Any comment on this thread will be considered to be racist. That's racist to imply she has insider knowledge.

A fat woman being the spokesperson for a weight loss company...oh wait...she’s black so it’s okay.

I don't have time to label and of you racist. But, you're racist. So, just consider anyone who replies here to be racist....because I said so.

Oprah.

A one-word answer to counter the bogus allegations of institutional/systemic racism in the American society.

Made a gizillionnaire on the backs of white American housewives who liked her product, and didn’t give a rip what color she was.

So good it could be used for a tagline. If it weren’t so long.

Is the owner of a company considered to be an insider?

“There are blackout periods”

That’s racist.

If they're white, yes. (Warning: All comments here may be labeled as being racist, depending upon the whim of the poster. Truth of such accusations will be determined by the race of the poster, the race of the recipient, and if equal, by other determining factors per guidelines from BLM.)
