Insiders at AMAT and DELL filed over $630M in combined stock sales this month — a striking wave of C-suite selling at two of tech's biggest names.
Applied Materials CEO Gary Dickerson filed $49.2M in sales on June 17. The trades happened June 15–16, covering 83,000 shares at roughly $591 each. That wasn't all. CTO Omkaram Nalamasu filed $20.8M in sales on the same day. President Prabu Raja had already filed $25.3M in sales earlier in June. In total, four executives at Applied Materials filed over $80M in disposals within a two-week window. Shares have rallied sharply this year, suggesting executives are locking in gains near recent highs.
At Dell Technologies, Silver Lake Group — a board-level 10% owner — filed nearly $580M in sales across multiple tranches. Filings landed June 8 and June 10. General Counsel Richard Rothberg separately filed an $8.2M sale on June 17.
Elsewhere, DaVita CEO Javier Rodriguez filed $14.5M in sales on June 17. Trades occurred June 15–16. Clearwater Analytics saw a director file $15.4M in sales on June 17.
On the buy side, no major US C-level purchases crossed the $1M mark in the same period — a notable absence that may reflect stretched valuations across the board.
