Bill Gates has been buying RSG shares at a steady pace. Filings reported between late August and early September show he purchased more than 2.7 million shares of Republic Services across roughly 14 separate transactions. The total value exceeded $550 million. Prices ranged from around $214 to $224 per share.
Gates holds the stock through his main shareholder vehicle, not as a corporate officer. The buying pattern is consistent and spans multiple weeks, suggesting a deliberate accumulation rather than a one-off bet.
On a smaller scale, UBER President and COO Andrew MacDonald filed a $4.1 million open-market purchase in early September at roughly $75.65 per share. That is a discretionary buy by a sitting C-suite executive, which carries more signal than a routine award or option exercise.
Outside the US, Li Ning's controlling shareholder Viva China Holdings kept buying the sportswear group's Hong Kong-listed shares across three filings in early September, adding more than $130 million worth of stock in total.
The EDGAR-specific tables were not accessible in this environment, so US Form 4 filings for the most recent weeks could not be queried directly. The trades above come from the vendor insider dataset, which shows data through 8 September 2026. More recent US discretionary trades filed after that date may exist but could not be retrieved.
