Bill Gates filed new purchases in RSG this week. The filings, reported August 20–24, show he bought over 600,000 shares across multiple days. The total spent exceeds $130M, at prices averaging around $219–221 per share. Gates is already the largest outside shareholder in Republic Services. This cluster of fresh buys signals continued confidence in the waste management giant.
Meanwhile, sellers dominated elsewhere. Ronda Stryker, a director at SYK, filed $117.8M in sales on August 20. She offloaded 350,000 shares between August 18–19 at around $336 per share. The name matches the company's founding family, making the size of the exit hard to ignore.
At biotech firm MANE, a hedge fund and a director both recently filed sales. Suvretta Capital Management sold $74M worth of shares on August 19. Director John Childs filed an additional $10.7M in sales, reported August 14. That's multiple insiders heading for the door as the stock trades above $107.
Chime Financial CHYM, the recently listed fintech, also saw a major shareholder file a $62M sale on August 20. The stock is still new to public markets.
Gates buying waste. Stryker selling medtech. Biotech insiders cashing out. The week's filings tell three very different stories.
