What changed in the last 30 days
Oct 1Chairman & CEO COX MATTHEW J sold $2.2M under a 10b5-1 plan (Sep 29)
Why it matters
A 10b5-1 plan schedules trades months ahead, so this says little about what the insider thinks today.
Sep 29Officer COX MATTHEW J filed to sell $6.3M by Sep 29 (Form 144)
Why it matters
A Form 144 is a notice of intent to sell; the sale may not happen, and it says nothing about the price.
