Insiders Buy and Sell as Data Lags Markets

The most recent insider filing data available from ORTEX covers trades reported on 8 September 2026. Fresh US SEC EDGAR Form 4 data could not be retrieved from this environment, so the figures below draw on the global vendor dataset.

The single largest disclosed buy on that date came from JPMorgan Chase, which filed a $26.9M purchase in Huaneng Power International, the Chinese state utility, covering 38.3 million shares at HK$5.52 each. That same filing day, JPMorgan also disclosed $84.9M of sales in Kingdee International Software and $70.8M in Sunny Optical, both as a reported 5% owner managing its position.

The standout discretionary move came from Uber Technologies. Andrew MacDonald, President and COO, filed a $4.1M open-market purchase of 54,325 shares at $75.65. A company president buying on the open market with his own cash is a stronger signal than a routine award or exercise.

In Turkey, the chairman of Burçelik Vana bought $12.9M worth of shares on 7 September, even as an asset manager sold $13.6M in the same stock on the same day. That tug-of-war between a chairman buying and an institutional seller exiting is worth watching.

On the activist front, Schedule 13D data was unavailable in this environment. Readers should check ORTEX's full platform for fresh 5%-crossing filings, which can be the sharpest single signal in any given week.
