What changed in the last 30 days
Oct 7COO, Benefits Deshaies Robert Joseph sold $347.1K under a 10b5-1 plan (Oct 5)
Why it matters
A 10b5-1 plan schedules trades months ahead, so this says little about what the insider thinks today.
Oct 5Officer Robert Deshaies filed to sell $347.0K by Oct 5 (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.
