Bill Gates filed this week to disclose he bought $64.5M worth of RSG shares over two days. He picked up 292,000+ shares in Republic Services at prices around $218–$223 each. The waste management giant is now a major holdings position.
Meanwhile, Energy Transfer founder Kelcy Warren filed disclosures showing he bought $21.3M of ET units across August 18–19. Warren paid roughly $21.26 per unit for 1 million shares. The Executive Chairman buying heavily into his own company is a strong vote of confidence.
The starkest contrast comes from IRDM. Five Iridium Communications executives filed sales totalling nearly $19M on the same day — August 17. The COO, Chief Legal Officer, Chief Accounting Officer, and two directors all dumped shares at around $50. A coordinated exit like this across the entire C-suite is rarely a bullish signal.
At SYK, Director Ronda Stryker — a member of the founding family — filed sales of $81M across two tranches on August 18. That is one of the largest single-director sales filings this month.
SCHW also saw four executives file sales totalling $53M over the past two weeks, pointing to broad distribution pressure at The Charles Schwab Corporation.
