Bill Gates filed to buy nearly $186.5 million in RSG stock this week. The billionaire acquired 864,624 shares of Republic Services across 14 trades between August 10 and 13, at prices around $215–$216 per share. The purchases mark one of the largest individual insider buying clusters filed this week.
The move signals fresh confidence in the waste and environmental services giant. Gates already held a major position. This fresh wave of buying, disclosed on August 12 and 14, adds meaningfully to that stake.
On the selling side, TWLO saw a notable exit. Andrew Stafman, a hedge fund board representative, filed on August 12 to have sold 500,000 shares worth $123.5 million at $247.08. The transaction flags significant boardroom distribution at Twilio as the stock trades near multi-year highs.
CRWV also drew attention. Magnetar Financial, a 10% owner in CoreWeave, disclosed two separate sales totalling roughly $85.4 million between August 13 and 14. The AI infrastructure firm has seen its share price climb sharply this year, making these filings look like profit-taking by an early institutional backer.
Taken together, this week's filings show a clear split: smart money buying into established cash-flow businesses, while early backers of high-flying growth names quietly reduce exposure.
