Rick D. Hess

Rick D. Hess is a declared insider at 3 companies; the most frequent names are Analog Devices Inc, Hittite Microwave Corp and MKS Inc. In total, 50 filings cover trades dated from 17 May 2006 to 8 May 2019.

In open-market terms, that means 1 purchase worth €42k on one side and 13 sales worth €2.6M on the other. Netting one side against the other leaves €2.5M of net selling. A purchase on the market is a deliberate choice to commit personal money, which is why it draws more attention than a grant. Besides market trades, the filings include 21 share grants and 14 option exercises.

Most recently, on 9 May 2019, the filings show a share grant in MKS Inc. The last insider purchase was made public on 17 March 2008, 6,810 days ago. Typically, a trade is published a median of 2 days after it takes place. The legal deadline for a Form 4 is two business days after the transaction. A sale on its own says little: insiders also sell to pay tax, fund a purchase or diversify. These figures are compiled from regulatory filings published by SEC (Form 4). They describe what insiders did and are not a recommendation.
