Are the speculators figuring the board's knowledge into S and S'?
Since that's part of the dump event, it seems like it should be. If
we assume the board is rational and working for the benefit of
the company, then we could rephrase the problem as
S: price given the board thinks the company's better off keeping the CEO
S': price given the board thinks the company's better off without the CEO
Does that change anything?
