Tesla stock was relatively non-traded by insiders
Electric vehicle (EV) maker stock has not experienced notable insider selling activity in 2024, with only eight insider sales throughout the year.
Interestingly, of these eight insider sales, Denholm’s trades account for half of them, making her the most active TSLA stock insider. Over 480,000 shares were sold for a profit of approximately $66.5 million.
With a considerable profit gap, first place goes to the former senior vice president, Andrew Baglino, who, according to a July 25 SEC filing, sold shares in the electric vehicle company worth approximately $181.5 million.
The filing states that Baglino, who joined Tesla in 2006, is selling about 1.14 million shares, as the “approximate date of sale” is listed as April 25, and the transaction is described as an exercise of stock options.
