Today's Top Insider Moves That Matter

Markets bled red across the board today, with tech, consumer cyclical, and healthcare sectors leading the retreat. Semiconductors plunged, software sagged, and even defensives like consumer staples couldn’t dodge the pressure. Financials and energy were more resilient, but the broader tone was risk-off and rotational.

And while the market was busy panicking, insiders were busy buying—especially in unloved corners. Energy and consumer retail names saw multi-insider cluster purchases. Key executives in beaten-down tech and biotech didn’t flinch either, writing checks when others were running for cover.

Let’s dive into today’s biggest moves.

Biggest Insider Sales

📡 C3.ai $AI ( â–˛ 2.59% ) – CEO Offloads $12.6M Amid AI Sector Volatility

  • Who’s Selling? Thomas Siebel (CEO, 10% Owner)

  • What He Sold: 626,299 shares at $20.07

  • Total Value: $12.6M

  • Why It Matters: A nearly 9% drop in personal stake during a shaky period for AI stocks. This isn’t just a trim—it’s a tactical retreat.

💾 MicroStrategy $MSTR ( ▲ 5.24% ) – Top Exec Dumps 64% of His Stake

  • Who’s Selling? Wei-Ming Shao (EVP, General Counsel)

  • What He Sold: 20,000 shares at $314.58

  • Total Value: $6.3M

  • Why It Matters: With just 11K shares remaining, this isn’t a casual cash-out. Given MSTR’s Bitcoin exposure, this move is eyebrow-raising.

🔋 MP Materials $MP ( ▼ 6.15% ) – CEO’s Quiet $5.4M Reduction

  • Who’s Selling? James Litinsky (Chairman & CEO)

  • What He Sold: 199,180 shares at $27.08

  • Total Value: $5.4M

  • Why It Matters: Only a 1% reduction in holdings, but selling while rare earths stay volatile hints at caution ahead.

🧬 BeiGene (BGNE) – Scientific Chair Nets $10.1M

  • Who’s Selling? Xiaodong Wang (Chair, Scientific Advisory Board)

  • What He Sold: 41,760 shares at $242.66

  • Total Value: $10.1M

  • Why It Matters: Still holding over 10M shares, but this biotech heavyweight’s timing may reflect insider skepticism at current valuations.

🚗 Garrett Motion $GTX ( ▼ 0.22% ) – 10% Owner Exits $17.2M Worth

  • Who’s Selling? Cyrus Capital Partners

  • What They Sold: 1.9M shares at $9.04

  • Total Value: $17.2M

  • Why It Matters: A 7% stake reduction from a key stakeholder. Moves like this often precede repositioning—or signal a valuation ceiling.

It’s clear that tech and EV-adjacent names are seeing the biggest trims. Could this mark a top, or just a recalibration? Now let’s flip the script and look at who’s buying instead.
