CVS dominated insider filing activity this week. Director Lawrence Robbins filed sales totalling over $310 million across three days — May 19–21. He sold nearly 3.3 million shares at around $94 each. That is the biggest single-week insider dump in recent filings.
Apple Chairman Arthur Levinson also filed sales this week. He sold over $71 million worth of AAPL shares on May 6, filing two separate transactions. Both were disclosed on May 8.
Coca-Cola CEO James Quincey filed a $15.8 million sale on May 11. He sold 200,000 shares at roughly $79 each. That is a notable move from the company's top executive.
On the buy side, Bill Gates stands out. His foundation filed $162 million in purchases of Republic Services stock across five trading days in May. Gates bought shares repeatedly between $197 and $209. The steady accumulation suggests a deliberate long-term bet on the waste management giant.
Activist investor Ed Garden also filed a $13.5 million purchase in on May 20. He paid $33.40 per share. That filing came just one day after the trade.
Monolithic Power Systems saw its CEO Michael Hsing file over $26 million in sales. EVP Deming Xiao filed an additional $42 million in sales. Both insiders filed within days of their trades.
