I don't think you need to be ITK that this was coming, also he could quite have easily been thinking "If people know I hold shares in a Russian bank they will freak, I'd better sell them quickly"

It should be like working in banks and many financial services firms, you have get permissions to trade (no, not from the PM here, it should be someone independent) and have to hold positions for a minimum of 30 days.

It would be good to see JRM squirm.
