What’s Up with Carrizo Top Mgmt Continued Selling of Co. Stock?

Carrizo Oil & Gas CEO Chip Johnson continues to sell off his company stock. On June 1, Johnson sold 24,661 shares of company stock for $1.2 million. A few days later, on June 5, he sold another 6,000 shares for $309,000. Then again on September 8, Johnson sold another 6,000 shares netting him $217,000. And on October 5, Johnson sold yet another tranche of 6,000 shares, this time for $227,040 (see Carrizo O&G CEO Chip Johnson Continues to Sell His Company Stock). In an "Oops, I did it again," Johnson sold another tranche of 6,000 shares earlier this week--this time for $193,440. That makes the grand total of Johnson's stock sales 48,661 shares since June for a grand total of $2.1 million. But Johnson isn't the only Carrizo top dog to sell. Others have sold their shares, including board member Roger Ramsey who this week sold 1,000 shares for $33,310. This is the third time--that we know of--that Ramsey has sold stock in the company he helps oversee (see Carrizo CEO Chip Johnson Sells Another 6K Shares of Stock and Carrizo Oil & Gas “Insiders” Continue to Sell Company Stock). We have to ask, what in the world is going on at Carrizo that top management continues to sell off their stock?...
