Insider buying on Feb 18, 2026

On Feb 18, 2026, 52 insiders at 44 companies filed 93 purchases reported on Form 4, worth $134.1M in all, with a median purchase of $100.2K. The largest was Mitsui Sumitomo Insurance Co Ltd, 10% owner of Berkley W R Corp (WRB), who reported buying 281,386 shares worth $20.0M. Officers accounted for 29 purchases, directors who are not officers for 31, and 10% owners with no board or officer role for 31. Chief executives and chief financial officers filed 19 purchases: Nuttall Scott C, Co-Chief Executive Officer, Director of KKR & Co. Inc. (KKR); Bae Joseph Y, Co-Chief Executive Officer, Director of KKR & Co. Inc. (KKR); Kaplan Jordan L, Chairman and CEO, Director of Douglas Emmett Inc (DEI) among others. 10 companies showed cluster buying, two or more insiders buying within 7 days, among them KKR (3 insiders), CIK 1742951 (3 insiders), WRB (2 insiders), ABX (2 insiders). For 13 insiders of 52, this was the first purchase of that company's stock on our record. That is fewer than the 98 purchases filed on Feb 17, 2026. A Form 4 is due within two business days of the trade, so most of these purchases were made earlier in the week. Code P also covers shares bought privately from the company, so one large figure can be a negotiated placement rather than buying on the exchange.
