This caught my eye in this week's Barron's: from their Market Watch column.

"On July 26, Thomson Financial Network reported that the overall insider Sell/Buy ratio was 11.32:1 ($11.32 worth of overall insider sales for each $1 of overall insider buying)...These high Sell/Buy ratios are tellng us that insiders are bearish and that they are selling into this rally. Worse yet, the insider Sell/Buy ratio for the Nasdaq, as reported on July 26, was at 1,177.22:1. That's right, this is not a typo."

Caveat emptor!
