Gates Buys $927M in Trash; NVDA Director Dumps $411M

Bill Gates has been quietly accumulating RSG stock at scale. He filed purchases totalling $927 million in Republic Services shares over 65 separate trades between August 10 and September 2. His stake now stands at roughly 37% of the company. The consistent, high-frequency buying signals deep conviction in the waste management giant.

On the sell side, NVDA Independent Director Mark A. Stevens filed sales of $411 million worth of Nvidia shares. The trades, spanning 1.85 million shares, occurred August 31 through September 2 and were disclosed September 2. With Nvidia's stock still elevated on AI momentum, Stevens' exit is notable — though it's worth checking whether these fall under a pre-planned 10b5-1 schedule, which would reduce their signal strength.

Elsewhere, PLTR CEO Alex Karp filed a $53.6 million share sale on August 24. The disposal of 306,544 shares continues his long-running programme of trimming his position in the AI data firm.

In a separate move, Vietnam-listed Dien May Xanh CEO Doan Van Hieu Em disclosed a $2.2 million open-market purchase filed today, showing executive confidence in the consumer electronics retailer.

The clearest bullish signal remains Gates' relentless accumulation of RSG — 65 trades is not a passive holder rebalancing. It looks like a deliberate, sustained bet on America's largest waste services group.
