Cheney makes $18 million on sale of oil stock The Associated Press WASHINGTON (September 13, 2000 10:31 a.m. EDT http://www.nandotimes.com) - Republican vice presidential candidate Dick Cheney made $18.3 million in profit on the sale of 660,000 shares of Halliburton Co. stock in late August, his spokesman said. It was a standard divestiture of securities, and not connected to the election, spokesman Dirk Vande Beek said. Cheney retired as chief executive of Halliburton, an oil services company based in Dallas, shortly after being chosen as running mate by GOP presidential nominee George W. Bush. "These were already vested options, and he cashed them in," Vande Beek said. Cheney recently announced that, if elected, he would forfeit other Halliburton stock options that wouldn't be vested until after he took office. On the campaign trail Wednesday, Cheney was promoting policies to help save family farms at a stop in Montague, Mich. He also planned to visit former President Ford, who suffered a minor stroke during the Republican National Convention. The shares Cheney sold in August were valued at about $35 million, according to documents filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. In June, Cheney sold 100,000 shares for an estimated $5.1 million. Cheney said Sept. 1 that, if elected, he would forfeit 233,333 options that could not be sold until 2001 or later to avoid a conflict of interest. ================================================================= Kadosh, Kadosh, Kadosh, YHVH, TZEVAOT FROM THE DESK OF: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> *Mike Spitzer* <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> ~~~~~~~~ <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> The Best Way To Destroy Enemies Is To Change Them To Friends Shalom, A Salaam Aleikum, and to all, A Good Day. ================================================================= <A HREF="http://www.ctrl.org/">www.ctrl.org</A> DECLARATION & DISCLAIMER ========== CTRL is a discussion & informational exchange list.
