John, you need to focus on the relevant period. That is the last week in June through mid August, 1990. Your time frame is too long, and muffles the relevant data. (No doubt, some Pubbies will be posting your kind of chart a lot, but it is a red herring.) By mid August, whatever Bush knew would have become public. What we need to know is precisely WHEN it became public.

Only if you assume wrongdoing. If he simply sold because he needed cash to pay off his loan, then it makes sense.

Having said that, I don't like cheats, period. But you'll have to do better than Krugmans klaptrap to convince me of that.
