Bill Gates spent $927 million buying shares in RSG between August 10 and September 2, filings show. The Gates Foundation made 65 separate open-market purchases totalling 4.2 million shares. The buying spree was disclosed in a batch of filings lodged on September 3. Republic Services is a waste management company, and Gates has been a long-term holder. The scale and pace of the buying stands out even by his standards.
At NVDA, independent director Mark Stevens filed on September 2 disclosing he sold roughly 1.85 million shares for $411 million in trades carried out on August 31 and September 2. That is a large block for a single board member. No 10b5-1 plan was flagged in these filings, making the timing worth watching against NVIDIA's price run this year.
Across the Atlantic, Kenneth Bryan Dart, the main shareholder in live-casino group EVO, filed on August 26 that he bought 10 million shares for $716 million across two trades in late July. Dart is a notoriously private investor. A purchase of this size, disclosed weeks after the trades, signals confidence in Evolution at a time when the stock has faced regulatory pressure in several markets.
The NVIDIA director sale is the clearest near-term signal to monitor. Discretionary selling by a board member at these levels carries more weight than a pre-planned disposal would.
