This seems to be the key part of the Kodak loan holdup:
But the DFC has now put the deal on hold after the Securities and Exchange Commission launched an investigation into potential insider trading after a massive amount of Kodak shares traded hands the day before the loan's announcement.
"You see all of this trading take place, and you see board members and other associates making billions of dollars of a transaction," said Rep. James Clyburn, D-S.C., who joined Democratic leaders in calling for an investigation of the deal.
Quite possible. But just goes to demonstrate that the government can interfere with what on the surface appears to be a done deal.
