Two clear signals have emerged from recent insider filings. CEOs are opening their wallets. Hedge fund insiders are heading for the exit.
CIGI CEO Jay Hennick filed purchases of over $29M across three separate transactions in May. He bought 300,000 shares of Colliers International at prices ranging from $95 to $98. That kind of repeated open-market buying from a founder-CEO is a strong vote of confidence.
KHC CEO Steve Cahillane filed a $5M purchase of Kraft Heinz shares on May 13. The trade was made at roughly $23.46 per share. The new CEO putting his own money in at depressed levels is worth noting.
WCN Founder and CEO Ronald Mittelstaedt filed a $7.6M purchase of Waste Connections shares in mid-May. He paid $152 per share for 50,000 shares.
On the sell side, TWLO saw a board-affiliated hedge fund manager, Andrew Stafman, file $314M in sales across two transactions. He sold 1.675 million shares in May at prices between $184 and $193. Twilio's stock has nearly doubled over the past year. The sell-off looks like profit-taking at peak levels.
On the defence front, RHM CEO Armin Papperger filed a €5.8M personal purchase of Rheinmetall shares on June 2, paying over €1,249 per share. European defence demand remains high amid geopolitical tensions.
