Insider filings over the past week reveal a clear split: C-suite executives buying into beaten-down stocks while others cash out near recent highs.
TORO CEO Petros Panagiotidis made the boldest move. He filed purchases totalling over $13.8M across three separate transactions between April 22–23. He bought shares at prices ranging from $5.04 to $6.52. That kind of aggressive, multi-day accumulation from a CEO is a strong signal of confidence.
NKE also saw two top executives buy shares on the same day. CEO Elliott Hill filed a ~$1M purchase at $42.27. Lead Independent Director Tim Cook filed a $1.06M buy at $42.43. Nike stock is down sharply from its 52-week highs. Both filings were reported on April 14.
HOMB founder and Chairman/CEO John Allison filed a $2.7M purchase of 100,000 shares at $26.96 on April 20. Founders buying their own stock is always worth watching.
On the sell side, ASTS saw 10% owner Hiroshi Mikitani file sales of $270M combined across April 14–15. He offloaded 3.04 million shares between $86 and $91. CEO Matthew Flannery filed a $22.4M sale on April 24 at roughly $985 per share.
The buying cluster at Nike and Toro Corp stands out. Multiple insiders stepping in at the same price level often precedes a recovery.
