A Spanish food giant saw its biggest insider buy of the year. A director at EBRO — Ebro Foods — filed on July 30 that he purchased 1.5 million shares for $32.3 million at €18.20 each. That's a bold bet on a stock that has faced pressure in recent months.
Across the Atlantic, selling pressure dominated. The UAL COO, Toby Enqvist, filed on July 28 that he sold $2.4 million in United Airlines Holdings shares. The trade came days after the airline's earnings season. Two directors at MRSH — Marsh & McLennan Companies — also reported sales totalling over $3.4 million between July 23 and July 28.
The most persistent seller of the week is a 10% owner in LIFE — Ethos Technologies. GV 2019 GP LLC filed 12 separate sell transactions over the past 30 days. The total value reached $11.7 million, spread across trades priced near $19 per share. That level of sustained selling from a major shareholder is hard to ignore.
At SPFI — South Plains Financial — a director sold 70,000 shares for $3.1 million on July 28. The filing arrived just two days later.
The contrast is clear. One European director is buying aggressively. Meanwhile, US insiders are cashing out.
