Big Insider Bet: $2.3M Into Energy Today

🔧🎓✈️🪙🌐🛢🏦🌍🚤⚾

Today's Top Insider Moves That Matter

The market rallied broadly today, led by semiconductors, internet retail, and mega-cap tech—all glowing green across the heatmap. Energy, industrials, and even auto manufacturers showed strength, while healthcare, real estate, and utilities lagged behind. Consumer staples? Still stuck in the defensive lane, with muted to negative movement.

Against this macro backdrop, insiders made moves worth watching. Energy names saw steady institutional accumulation, aligning with the sector's renewed momentum. Financial insiders quietly added exposure, reflecting confidence as banks rebounded. Meanwhile, some unusual buying in consumer and media stocks raised eyebrows—especially from names that have been net sellers historically.

The takeaway? Risk appetite is back, and insiders are positioning accordingly. Whether it’s strategic long plays or rare reversals, today’s filings cut through the market noise and hint at what’s next. Let’s dive into the biggest trades and see where smart money is moving.

Biggest Insider Sales

🔧 AutoZone $AZO ( ▼ 0.01% ) – SVP Unloads $17.6M in High-Octane Trim

  • Who’s Selling? Domingo Hurtado (SVP)

  • What They Sold: 4,800 shares at $3,660.00

  • Total Value: $17.6M

  • Why It Matters: With just 159 shares remaining, this 97% reduction is more than a trim—it’s a full pit stop. While AutoZone has been cruising near all-time highs, this exit throws up a caution flag.

🎓 Duolingo $DUOL ( ▲ 1.82% ) – Co-Founder Nearly Exits with $3.1M Sale

  • Who’s Selling? Severin Hacker (CTO, Co-Founder, 10% Owner)

  • What They Sold: 10,000 shares at $314.36

  • Total Value: $3.1M

  • Why It Matters: Hacker now holds only 72 shares—a 99% drawdown. For a high-growth edtech stock, that’s a stark signal from the founding team.

✈️ Heico Corp $HEI ( ▼ 0.49% ) – Director Slashes Holdings by $12M

  • Who’s Selling? Alan Schriesheim (Director)

  • What They Sold: 50,000 shares at $239.57

  • Total Value: $12M

  • Why It Matters: A 21% stake reduction isn’t insignificant, especially in a market segment with stretched valuations.

🪙 HG Holdings $STLY ( ▲ 602.16% ) – 10% Owner Dumps 402K Shares

  • Who’s Selling? Solas Capital Management LLC (10% Owner)

  • What They Sold: 402,322 shares at $7.80

  • Total Value: $3.1M

  • Why It Matters: A 35% ownership drop suggests recalibration from one of its largest backers. With microcaps under pressure, this could spook retail momentum.

🌐 Samsara Inc. $IOT ( ▲ 0.51% ) – Insider Offloads $5.9M in Strategic Move

  • Who’s Selling? John Bicket (10% Owner)

  • What They Sold: 170,000 shares at $34.99

  • Total Value: $5.9M

  • Why It Matters: Bicket remains a major shareholder, but shedding 16% is enough to raise eyebrows—especially as smart tech valuations come under scrutiny.

Insiders in consumer services, education, and industrials are sending a mixed signal: confidence in long-term company strength is being weighed down by rich valuations. Keep an eye on sectors seeing multiple trims.
