Bill Gates filed this week that he has been steadily buying RSG stock all month. The filings show he spent $562 million on Republic Services shares between August 10 and August 25. That works out to roughly 2.57 million shares at prices around $220–$224 each.
The buying is relentless. Gates added $48M on August 24 alone, then stacked on another $59M worth on August 25. Republic Services is the second-largest waste management company in the US — a classic long-term hold that fits Gates's well-known preference for steady, essential businesses.
On the sell side, CHYM — Chime Financial — is seeing heavy insider exits. Venture backer DST Global filed this week that it has sold $348 million worth of Chime stock since August 13. The fintech IPO has attracted early-backer profit-taking almost from the start.
SYK director Ronda Stryker also filed a large sale this week. She disclosed dumping $118 million in Stryker Corporation shares across August 18–19, covering 350,000 shares at roughly $336. Stryker is a family heiress and long-time director of the medical device maker.
Meanwhile, Evolution AB major shareholder Kenneth Dart filed a $570 million EVO stake increase — though the trade itself occurred back in July.
