Insider Weekly – Merlintrader
Insider trading this week: the 20 biggest buys and 20 biggest sells
Who bought and who sold shares of their own company – by dollar value – in the week of July 6 to July 10, 2026. Period: Jul 6-10, 2026. Source: Finviz Elite (Form 4). Ranked by USD value.

Methodology. Data pulled from Finviz Elite’s insider register (SEC Form 4 filings for executed transactions), filtered on trade dates in the week of July 6-10, 2026 and ranked by dollar value. For buys we include only open-market purchases (“Buy”); for sells we include executed sales (“Sale”). A useful principle: insider buys usually carry a single meaning (confidence in the stock), while sells can have many causes – tax planning, diversification, scheduled 10b5-1 plans, venture-fund distributions after an IPO – and do not by themselves imply a negative view. Sources: Finviz and SEC EDGAR (Form 4).

The companies, in brief – and the next catalyst
A short description of every company involved and the next potentially market-moving event known as of publication. Where an earnings date is not yet confirmed, an expected window is given.
Who bought (buy side)
Mission Produce (AVO)~$32M su quattro giorni
Vertically integrated global grower and distributor of avocados (and mangoes), recently enlarged by the acquisition of Calavo (targeting at least $25M of annualized synergies). 10% owner Globalharvest Holdings was the week’s most persistent buyer, adding shares across four consecutive days. Management expects a bumper 2026 crop that lowers prices but improves overall performance.
Next catalyst: Next fiscal quarterly report (expected around September), avocado pricing and seasonality, and Calavo synergy capture.
Netskope (NTSK)~$14.4M (director + ICONIQ)
Cloud security (SASE) company founded in 2012 and led by Sanjay Beri; it listed on Nasdaq in September 2025 at a ~$7.3B valuation. A director and 10% owner ICONIQ Strategic Partners each bought about $7.2M on July 8.
Next catalyst: First earnings reports as a public company and post-IPO lock-up dynamics.
Gloo Holdings (GLOO)~$6M (CEO, director, Gelsinger)
Boulder-based technology and AI platform for the faith and nonprofit sector, serving 140,000+ ministry and nonprofit leaders. Executive Chair and Head of Technology is Pat Gelsinger, former CEO of Intel and VMware. The July 10 buys by the CEO, a director and Gelsinger came alongside a $3.25 share offering priced on July 8; Benchmark recently raised its target to $15 (Buy).
Next catalyst: Deployment of the offering proceeds and next quarterly results.
Energy Fuels (UUUU)~$968k (President & CEO)
US integrated critical-minerals producer active in uranium (White Mesa Mill in Utah), rare earths and medical isotopes. President and CEO Ross Bhappu bought about $968k on July 7. In June the company received a conditional $725M, 20-year US Office of Strategic Capital loan commitment to expand White Mesa and build a rare-earth metals facility.
Next catalyst: Finalization of the OSC loan, uranium production scaling and rare-earth project progress; next quarterly results.
Energizer Holdings (ENR)~$1.6M su due giorni
Global maker of batteries and auto-care products (Energizer, Eveready, Rayovac, Armor All). 10% owner Aqua Capital bought on two days.
Next catalyst: Next fiscal quarterly results (expected in August) and input-cost/margin trends.
CapsoVision (CV)~$495k (10% owner)
Medical-device company behind capsule endoscopy (CapsoCam). A 10% owner group associated with Eli Harari, the SanDisk co-founder, bought about $495k.
Next catalyst: Commercial adoption of its capsule-endoscopy platform and next reported results.
Palmer Square Capital BDC (PSBD)~$647k su due giorni
Business development company investing in private and leveraged credit. 10% owner Martin Bicknell bought across two days; the company expanded its buyback by $30M (through June 2027).
Next catalyst: Next quarterly results and the next distribution.
ProQR Therapeutics (PRQR)~$239k (CEO)
Dutch RNA-editing biotech built around the Axiomer platform. CEO Daniel de Boer bought 150,000 shares.
Next catalyst: Pipeline and partnership milestones on the RNA-editing platform.
707 Cayman Holdings (JEM)~$187k (HFT firm)
Small-cap name; the buyer, HRT Financial LP, is a high-frequency trading firm, so the activity most likely reflects market-making rather than a conviction signal.
Next catalyst: Company-specific filings; treat high-frequency-trading activity with caution.
H2O America (HTO)~$173k (10% owner)
US water utility. A 10% owner (Atlas Infrastructure) made a small open-market purchase.
Next catalyst: Rate-case and regulatory decisions and next quarterly results.
Larimar Therapeutics (LRMR)~$167k (director)
Clinical-stage biotech developing nomlabofusp for Friedreich’s ataxia. A director bought about $167k.
Next catalyst: Clinical-data updates and regulatory interactions on the Friedreich’s ataxia program.
Evommune (EVMN)~$133k (director)
Immuno-inflammation biotech (recent IPO). A director bought about $133k.
Next catalyst: Clinical readouts across its inflammatory-disease pipeline.
Who sold (sell side)
Rocket Lab (RKLB)~$286M su tre giorni
Space launch (Electron; the medium-lift reusable Neutron is due for a 2026 first flight) and space-systems company. CEO Peter Beck sold across three days, the week’s largest sell cluster. Q1 posted a record ~$200M revenue and a backlog above $2.2B. These are large scheduled CEO sales into strength, not a call on fundamentals.
Next catalyst: Q2 2026 results on August 4 (revenue guidance $225-240M) and the Neutron first-flight timeline.
Robinhood Markets (HOOD)~$43.6M (CEO)
Retail brokerage and financial-services app. CEO Vlad Tenev sold about $43.6M.
Next catalyst: Q2 2026 results after the close on July 29.
Dell Technologies (DELL)~$170M (Silver Lake, piu’ filing)
PC, server and AI-infrastructure hardware maker. Silver Lake entities, the long-time private-equity backer, sold about $170M across several filings, continuing a post-buyout stake reduction and distribution.
Next catalyst: Next quarterly report (Q2 FY27, expected late August) and AI-server demand.
Hinge Health (HNGE)~$38M (Insight)
Digital musculoskeletal (MSK) care platform; recent IPO. Insight, a venture backer, continued its post-IPO selling.
Next catalyst: Next quarterly results and lock-up and holder-selling dynamics.
PBF Energy (PBF)~$34M su due giorni
US independent petroleum refiner. Control Empresarial de Capitales, a Carlos Slim-linked vehicle and major holder, sold about $34M.
Next catalyst: Q2 2026 results (expected early August) and refining margins amid the current oil backdrop.
CoreWeave (CRWV)~$30.8M (CEO, 10b5-1)
AI-cloud and GPU data-center provider; recent IPO. CEO Michael Intrator sold about $30.8M under a pre-established 10b5-1 plan (partly a Class B-to-A conversion). Q1 revenue was about $2.08B (up ~112% year over year) with a backlog near $99.4B.
Next catalyst: Next quarterly results and data-center capacity and backlog conversion.
Casey’s General Stores (CASY)~$15.2M (President & CEO)
Midwest convenience-store and fuel retailer. President and CEO Darren Rebelez sold about $15.2M.
Next catalyst: Next fiscal quarterly report (expected around early September).
Ibotta (IBTA)~$15.1M (founder/10% owner)
Digital promotions and rewards network powering retailer cash-back offers. A founder and 10% owner sold about $15.1M.
Next catalyst: Next quarterly results and retailer-network expansion.
Workday (WDAY)~$14.5M (co-founder)
Enterprise HR and finance cloud software. Co-founder and 10% owner David Duffield sold about $14.5M.
Next catalyst: Q2 FY27 results (expected late August).
Datadog (DDOG)~$13.9M (CTO, 10b5-1)
Cloud observability and security software. CTO Alexis Le-Quoc sold about $13.9M under a 10b5-1 plan.
Next catalyst: Q2 2026 results (expected early August).
Andersen Group (ANDG)~$13.5M (10% owner)
Small/mid-cap holding; 10% owner Durable Capital Partners sold about $13.5M. Public information is limited, so this is best read as a large-holder reduction rather than an operational signal.
Next catalyst: Company filings and next reported results.
