I came very close to not catching the sarcasm there. Well done.

I would happily play a game titled Tony Hawk Presents Guitar Hero Featuring Spider-Bond.

Serious opinions aren't welcome here. It's obvious that he's buying while it's low, since he has insider knowledge that it will probably go back up. But since we can't give serious opinions, I will just say...

That is all

Also, it’s a common practice to restore faith in stock holders by placing your own money in the stocks that you want to see bounce back. But that's silly thinking - insert something more sarcastic here.

Sarcasm or not, it is actually a good time to buy EA stock right now,

1) the price is relatively low,
2) the USDollar has stopped going up for a bit
3) titles like Dead Space, Mirror's Edge and other goodies expected to sell in the time prior to holidays
4) The boss himself has both thousands of shares thereby decreasing the supply, and indirectly increasing the supply.

While I trade currencies, not exactly stocks; I can sure tell he knows what he's doing (at least in the trading department). And hopefully this will encourage him to publish less rehashed sports titles and more good games like Crysis

Its a good way to show you have faith in your ability to lead and in your company. Its especially effective when you actually believe yourself as well.

I think he's betting on Madden 2010 outselling its competitors next year.

Probably wants to help defend against a Disney take over.

"Tony Hawk Presents Guitar Hero Featuring Spider-Bond."

That sounds like fun. Hell, I'd settle for a Spider-Bond game, whatever it ended up being.

The entertainment industry is depression-proof. Ask all the movie theaters and radios during the Great Depression. And yes I mean talk to them, I've been that greatly depressed.

If I had to guess, I'd say he's banking on the theory that TOR will be the "WoW-killer". It won't be (WoW players will play WoW), but it will definately earn a lot of coin. He's just picking up the stock early, while it's still low.
