CME CIO Cutinho Sunil sells 11,896 shares (11.9K) for $3,229,444.10; reduces stake 40.6%, poorly timed vs. 90d CME history

Cutinho Sunil, Chief Information Officer at CME GROUP INC., executed 2 separate sales on 2025-08-26, selling 11,896 shares total for $3,229,444.10 at a blended average price of $271.47, reducing his holdings from 29,336 shares to 17,440 shares (a -40.6% reduction in stake). The timing context is unfavorable: his 3 prior sells at CME showed a 90-day timing pattern of 0 of 3 well-timed (all 3 prior sales were followed by stock gains of 3.4%–8.4% within 90 days, meaning he sold ahead of rallies). The current stock price of $271.61 is down 6.6% from the 52-week high and down 5.0% over the past 90 days, suggesting his recent sale price was near recent peaks. CME's fundamentals remain strong with a 5.07 P/E ratio and annual revenue growth of 9.9%, providing no obvious catalyst for concern about the company itself.

CME CIO Cutinho Sunil sold 4,500 shares ($1.0M) on 2024-10-30, reducing holdings by 14.3% to 27,053 shares.

Cutinho Sunil, Chief Information Officer of CME GROUP INC., executed a discretionary sale of 4,500 shares at $226.64, reducing his holdings by 14.3% from 31,553 shares to 27,053 shares. Across his all-ticker history, 2 prior sells averaged +2.3% returns over 30 days and +8.1% over 90 days, with a 0.00% well-timed rate at the 90-day mark—indicating past sales did not precede stock declines. At CME specifically, both prior sells in 2023 posted positive 90-day returns (+8.4% and +7.8%), with neither trade preceding downward price movement. The current stock price of $227.26 sits within the 52-week range and has advanced 15.8% over 90 days, continuing the pattern of strength observed after the insider's prior dispositions. This sale occurs during a period of strong equity performance and does not demonstrate a contrarian timing pattern at this ticker.
