McCarthy sells 20,000 BK shares at $98.45; stock at $99.97 (52-week high); 66.67% of prior sells well-timed

Kevin McCarthy, SEVP & General Counsel at Bank of New York Mellon, sold 20,000 shares (35.1K remaining) at $98.45 on 2025-07-22, reducing his stake by 36.3%. The sale occurred near the 52-week high of $99.97, with BK up 9.6% over 30 days and 27.1% over 90 days. Examining his trade history at BK specifically, 2 of 3 prior measurable sales (on 2024-04-19 and 2024-10-15) were well-timed, with the April 2024 sale followed by a 13.1% 90-day gain (stock rose after he exited). His broader cross-ticker track record shows 66.67% of prior sells were well-timed, though his cross-ticker average 90-day return after sells was +2.2%, indicating the stocks generally rose post-sale. The current transaction occurs as BK trades at its annual high and the company reports strong fundamentals (P/E 15.15, net income $1.2B, annual revenue growth +6.4%), leaving the forward signal ambiguous relative to observable price action and historical pattern.

His cross-ticker track record shows a 90-day well-timed rate of 66.67% across 3 prior sales, though at BK specifically, 2 of 3 prior sales were well-timed at the 90-day mark. The company's fundamentals remain solid: $2.9B quarterly revenue, $1.2B net income, and 6.4% annual growth, with a P/E of 12.02 and $58.0B market cap. This sale represents a material reduction in his holdings but does not signal obvious directional conviction given the moderate stock valuation and his mixed near-term timing history at this ticker.

BK Sr EVP Keating sold 65.5K shares at $77.31 (total $5.1M); holds 87.5K post-sale, down 42.8%.

Keating sold 65,473 shares at $77.31, reducing her stake by 42.8% from 153,015 to 87,542 shares. This represents a material reduction in her BK position with a total transaction value of $5,061,687.49. Contexting this against her prior sales at BK: in 2024 she sold twice and neither sale was well-timed at the 90-day mark (the 2024-04-18 sale was followed by +16.8% gain, and 2024-01-16 by only +0.1%), meaning her prior BK sales preceded periods of appreciation rather than declines. Stock BK currently trades at $75.73, down 14.9% from its 52-week high of $88.95 and down 8.1% over the past 30 days, placing her sale price of $77.31 above current levels but well below recent peaks. The transaction occurred on 2025-04-14 against a backdrop of modest fundamentals (P/E 11.25, +6.4% annual revenue growth).

Bank of New York Mellon's fundamentals remain solid with $2.9B quarterly revenue (+6.9% annual growth), $1.2B net income, and a P/E of 16.68. The timing of this sale near the 52-week high, combined with the stock's recent 9.8% 30-day and 24.0% 90-day appreciation, warrants observation alongside her historical trading pattern at this security.

McCarthy (SEVP & General Counsel) sells 25,000 BK shares at $76.31 for $1.9M; stock now at 52-week high of $77.75

McCarthy J Kevin sold 25,000 shares (25.0K shares) at $76.31 on 2024-10-15, reducing his holdings by 24.9% to 75,403 shares. The sale occurred near the stock's 52-week high of $77.75 (+0.0% from peak), after significant recent momentum: the stock gained 9.8% over 30 days and 24.0% over 90 days. At the same ticker, McCarthy's prior two sales showed mixed outcomes: the 2024-04-19 sale was followed by gains (+6.0% in 30d, +13.1% in 90d), while the 2023-07-19 sale preceded declines (-5.0% in 30d, -6.2% in 90d), yielding a 50% well-timed rate on same-ticker history. The company's fundamentals remain solid with recent quarterly net income of $1,168,000,000 and annual revenue growth of +6.9%, trading at a P/E of 16.68. The timing relative to technical levels and the substantial reduction in personal holdings warrant investor attention to any accompanying disclosure about motivation.

Smits Hanneke sells 15,000 BK shares at $64.11; stock now $62.69, down 4.6% from 52-week high

Smits Hanneke, Sr. Exec. Vice President of Bank of New York Mellon Corp, sold 15,000 shares on 2024-07-18 at $64.11, reducing holdings from 188.9K to 173.9K shares (-7.9%). The sale occurred near the 52-week high ($65.71); the stock has since retreated to $62.69 and is now down 4.6% from its peak. His cross-ticker track record shows 1 prior sale with a 100.00% well-timed rate at the 90-day mark, and his single prior trade at BK (a sell on 2024-01-16) also demonstrated favorable 90-day timing. The timing alignment here—selling into strength near annual highs—is consistent with his historical pattern, though the broader context of the stock's recent 30-day gain (+6.8%) and 90-day gain (+11.4%) suggests the executive disposed of shares following a meaningful rally rather than during a period of weakness.
