What changed in the last 30 days
Oct 13Executive Chair Howard Justyn Russell sold $440.6K under a 10b5-1 plan (Oct 9)
Why it matters
A 10b5-1 plan schedules trades months ahead, so this says little about what the insider thinks today.
Oct 9Director Howard Justyn Russell filed to sell $440.6K by Oct 9 (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.
