Insider filings this week reveal a wave of selling — but one European standout is moving in the opposite direction.
The biggest story out of Japan: Fast Retailing's founder and CEO Tadashi Yanai filed disclosures on July 22 covering three separate sales totalling over $207 million. The trades in Fast Retailing occurred between July 10 and 14, at prices around ¥79,000–¥82,000 per share. A CEO unloading that volume in a compressed window is a signal worth watching.
In the US, Liquidia Corporation saw two board-linked insiders file $24 million in combined sales last week. Venture fund Canaan VIII and director Stephen Bloch both sold at prices near $88–90 per share. The exits came across four separate filings, suggesting a coordinated exit rather than routine selling.
Westinghouse Air Brake Technologies also saw its General Counsel and CTO file combined sales of over $3.3 million on July 27. Three executives selling the same week raises eyebrows at current elevated price levels around $300.
Truist Financial CEO William Rogers filed a $694,000 sale on July 22, adding to the sell-side tone in US financials.
The lone bright spot: Swedish investment company Industrivärden filed a $48 million purchase in AB Volvo on July 28 — a strong vote of confidence from a major board-linked shareholder.
