The big holders got it early so their profits are still enormous. Just not as enormous.
And while the stock is inflated like a tech stock, they can't sell appreciable amounts without causing a downward spiral.
I think they're basically stuck with a mountain of paper profit, but as long as they still have 15-18x what they put in (the IPO price was $17) over 14 years, they're still happy with the 22.5%/year growth.
I don't think they have special knowledge, just luck.
