Dick Cheney was CEO of Halliburton in 2000 when he was chosen as vice-presidential running mate to George W. Bush.
His exit package from Halliburton was approximately$34 million.
Not clear when he sold most or all of his shares,but most likely divestiture came before the 2000 election.
But under Halliburton's stock option plan, Cheney would not have been allowed to sell his stock options, which could not be transferred except on his
death.
The minimum holding period was 2 years past the election for the stock options.
No way to tell Cheney's current level of stock or option ownership since he does not have legal disclosure requirements since leaving office in January of 2009.
