The boldest insider move this week came from ACS, the Spanish construction giant. CEO Florentino Perez Rodriguez filed on August 3rd, disclosing he bought 400,000 shares worth roughly $50.5 million across three consecutive days — July 29, 30, and 31. That kind of sustained, high-conviction buying from a chairman-CEO is rare. It signals strong personal confidence in the stock at current levels.
In the US, BSX CEO Michael Mahoney filed on August 5th showing a $9 million purchase on August 3rd. He picked up 186,240 Boston Scientific shares. C-suite buys of this size are attention-worthy — executives rarely spend personal capital unless they believe the market is undervaluing the company.
CSGP founder and CEO Andrew Florance also filed fresh buying. He disclosed a $2.5 million purchase of CoStar Group shares on August 4th.
On the selling side, ILMN saw a board-level seller. Keith Meister, an asset manager representing the board, filed a $33 million sale of Illumina shares on August 6th.
NEXT plc CEO Simon Wolfson disclosed selling £31.7 million worth of shares on August 7th — a significant liquidation for the UK retailer's chief.
The clearest cluster of buying pressure sits with the Adani Power group in India, where seven affiliated entities filed $2.77 billion in cumulative purchases on August 7th — though these are promoter-group disclosures rather than classic insider buys.
