The past two weeks saw a wave of significant insider selling across US-listed stocks. Filings reveal coordinated exits at several companies.
The most striking pattern is at AEHR. Six insiders — including CEO Gayn Erickson and Founder/Chairman Rhea Posedel — filed sales this week totalling over $11M. Erickson alone sold nearly $5M worth of shares at around $131 each. When a company's entire leadership sells in unison, the market pays attention.
TWLO saw a board member dump a massive block. Andrew Stafman, a hedge fund representative on the board, filed the sale of 500,000 shares for $123.5M on August 12. That's a single trade representing one of the largest insider disposals in recent weeks.
Charles Schwab, founder of SCHW, has been selling steadily through late July and into August. He filed multiple transactions totalling over $45M across six separate dates — a methodical, planned exit rather than a panic sell.
GSAT Executive Director Timothy Taylor filed back-to-back sales on August 12 and 13, raising in total. At , both a Director and the COO filed sales worth over combined, both reported on August 19.
Buyers are notably absent from the US market right now. The data shows selling pressure dominating fresh filings — a trend worth watching.
