Executives and directors must disclose their own trades in company stock. Of the last 6 disclosed transactions we hold for Salesforce, 1 was a sale and 0 were open-market purchases; the other 5 were awards, vesting or option exercises rather than a decision to buy or sell. Insiders sell for many ordinary reasons — scheduled plans, tax, diversification — so a sale is not by itself a signal.
| Insider | Date | Type | Shares | Value |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2026-09-04 | SELL | 4.5K | $1.2M | |
