Oct 21Director ANDERSON DAVID HUGO sold $73.1K under a 10b5-1 plan (Oct 19)
Why it matters
A 10b5-1 plan schedules trades months ahead, so this says little about what the insider thinks today.
Oct 19Director ANDERSON DAVID HUGO filed to sell $1.1M by Oct 19 (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.
