Fresh filings from June 9 reveal a split between executives heading for the exits and one bold founder doubling down.

GigaCloud Technology founder and CEO Larry Wu filed the largest US executive sale. He sold $7.3M worth of shares on June 4. The move raises eyebrows given GigaCloud's volatile trading history.

Guardant Health Co-CEO Helmy Eltoukhy filed three separate transactions totalling over $12.3M in sales. All trades occurred on June 5. The genomics firm has rallied sharply in 2026, and Eltoukhy appears to be locking in gains near 52-week highs.

Texas Capital Bancshares CEO Rob Holmes filed two back-to-back sales worth roughly $10M combined. He sold nearly 98,600 shares across June 5 and June 8 at prices around $101. That's a notable position reduction from the bank's top executive.

MongoDB director Dev Ittycheria filed multiple sales totalling over $11.9M in a single day. The trades came in rapid succession across a narrow price band near $383.

Against the selling tide, Ryan Specialty Holdings founder Patrick Ryan filed a $3.9M purchase on June 5. He bought 120,000 shares at roughly $32.50. Founder buying after a period of selling pressure is often watched closely by the market as a bullish signal.
