Executives Cash Out Across Healthcare and Tech

Insiders filed a wave of significant sell transactions this week. Three separate clusters stand out from recent filings.

ILMN board member Keith Meister filed sales totalling over $97M across multiple transactions between August 4–5. The trades were reported on August 6. Meister holds a board seat through his asset management firm, making the scale of these disposals notable.

EHC CEO Mark Tarr filed a $21.5M sale on August 11, covering 171,569 shares traded on August 10. Two other insiders at Encompass Health also filed sales this week. Combined, three insiders offloaded over $25M in total.

JNJ CEO Joaquin Duato filed an $10.8M sale on August 7. A second director also filed a sale the same week. Johnson & Johnson insiders collectively disposed of over $14M.

On the buy side, two insiders at APTV filed purchases totalling $7.5M. That cluster of buying stands out — it is the only major US name this week where insiders filed net purchases above $5M.

AUR also saw coordinated selling. A director and a linked venture firm filed identical $12.9M sales on August 11, totalling $27M in Aurora Innovation shares.
