  • How SBY reports after the close of trade today, and what it says during its conference call tomorrow morning may well tell a lot about the near term direction of TWO. An insider bought something like 16000+ shares of TWO at 12.60 roughly a week or so ago. Apparently TWO's ownership shares in SBY will be distributed in some manner to TWO shareholders as a special dividend after the lockup period expires in March. TWO hasn't said exactly when, for this will probably depend in part on market conditions.
