All filings by William A. Booth on record concern Columbia Bancorp \OR\. In total, 9 filings cover trades dated from 2 August 2006 to 5 February 2010.

Both buying and selling appear: 1 purchase worth €8,288, against 6 sales worth €99k. Netting one side against the other leaves €91k of net selling. A purchase on the market is a deliberate choice to commit personal money, which is why it draws more attention than a grant. Outside the open market, there are 2 share grants. In 2010 alone, the filings show no purchases and 4 sales.

The latest filing, published on 25 February 2010, reports an open-market sale of €1,441 in Columbia Bancorp \OR\. The latest purchase dates back some time: it was published 6,760 days ago, on 6 May 2008. Between a trade and the moment it shows up on SEC (Form 4), the median delay is 4 days. For comparison, the SEC allows two business days to file a Form 4. Sales are harder to read than purchases, since they often meet personal needs such as tax or diversification.
