LEAKED: Few US CEOs Bought the Dip as Tariff Turmoil Hit Markets
• Limited Insider Buying: Few US CEOs took advantage of April’s tariff-induced market dip due to trading restrictions during Q1 earnings blackout periods.
• Timing Constraints: The market disruption coincided with closed trading windows, limiting executives’ ability to respond opportunistically.
• Selective Buying: Only two CEOs at firms valued above $5bn made significant purchases; notable buyers included GameStop’s Ryan Cohen and Applied Materials’ Gary Dickerson.
• Share Price Recovery: Cohen’s purchase of 500,000 GameStop shares at $21.55 appreciated to $26.78 within two weeks, illustrating potential gains missed by others.
• Pre-emptive Sales: Executives at PepsiCo and Jazz Pharmaceuticals sold substantial holdings before Trump’s “liberation day” announcement, some outside preset trading plans.
• Muted Activity at Major Firms: Microsoft insiders have made no stock sales in 2025 to date — the longest pause since 2022 — reflecting broader caution.
• Post-Earnings Purchases: Buying resumed at some firms following earnings releases, e.g., Goldman Sachs board director John Hess’s rare $2mn purchase.
