Precisely. If you're in an executive position at a company, you're an "insider" pretty much 100% of the time so you have no choice but to sign up for a trading plan that dumps stock on a regular basis regardless of the price.

And the reason why his sales grow is likely because his stockpile of vested equity has grown over time, so selling "10% of holding" is going to go up every year.

This statement is speculative.

It's quite interesting how quickly people rush in to defend persons in perceived power, without objectively analyzing the actual claim. Are you part of the C-suite in-group?

It's not speculative at all. It's the law for insiders.

It's actually speculative to argue he "dumping" stocks because that would be illegal.
