I don't get why someone at your company would be a natural accomplice (surely their trading is monitored too?), but the timing could make sense. They missed earnings on the 1st and dropped about 15%. Maybe it takes a week to catch them and a week to fire them.

Pure guessing, but, the employees are likely to trade the stock because of RSU's so the "hiding in plain sight" tactic.
