Bill Gates has been on a buying spree at RSG. Filings show he bought $927 million worth of Republic Services stock across 65 trades between August 10 and September 2. That's over 4.2 million shares added to an already large position. The purchases were filed steadily through early September — a pattern that signals ongoing, deliberate conviction rather than a one-off bet.
On the sell side, NVDA Independent Director Mark Stevens filed $411 million in share sales on September 2. He offloaded roughly 1.85 million shares across seven transactions in just two days. The trades were reported the same day they occurred — an unusually fast turnaround. Stevens holds the title of Independent Director, not a C-suite operator, but the size and speed of the dump draws attention.
In Europe, billionaire Kenneth Dart filed late in August disclosing he bought $716 million of EVO — Evolution AB — in late July. Dart, already a major shareholder, snapped up over 10 million shares. The delay between trade and filing is worth noting: trades occurred July 21–24, disclosed August 26. Despite that lag, the scale makes it one of the biggest insider buys seen globally this cycle.
Meanwhile, Viva China Holdings — the vehicle controlled by sportswear tycoon Li Ning — filed purchases of $161 million in Li Ning Company shares between August 27 and September 3. The founder is buying back his own brand at scale.
