The open-market side counts 8 purchases for €123k alongside 25 sales for €8.5M. Sales outweigh purchases by €8.4M. Unlike grants, an open-market purchase is paid for by the insider, at the market price. Besides market trades, the filings include 47 share grants and 15 option exercises. Since January 2022: no purchases and 2 sales on the market.

The median purchase comes to €13k. For 8 purchases whose 90-day window has closed, the share price was higher on day 90 than the day after publication in 100% of cases, with a median move of +19.9%. They describe history only and say nothing certain about the share price ahead.

On 18 March 2022 came the latest disclosure, an open-market sale for €1.5M in Ambarella Inc. The latest purchase dates back some time: it was published 4,012 days ago, on 30 October 2015. Typically, a trade is published a median of 2 days after it takes place. For comparison, the SEC allows two business days to file a Form 4. Keep in mind that insiders sell for many reasons unrelated to the outlook, from tax bills to estate planning. Source: insider filings from SEC (Form 4). Past trades are no guide to future returns.
