Director Denis J Salamone sells 10,000 MTB shares at $223.41; stock +12.0% in 30 days, -0.5% from 52-week high.
Denis J Salamone, a director of M&T Bank Corp, executed a discretionary sale of 10,000 shares at $223.41 on 2024-11-25, reducing his holdings from 44.9K to 34.9K shares (-22.3%). The sale occurred near the stock's 52-week high ($221.95), with MTB trading +12.0% over the prior 30 days and +29.9% over 90 days. Salamone's cross-ticker track record shows minimal historical success timing sells (1 prior sale, +0.2% average 30d return), and his prior MTB sale on 2024-09-03 posted a +0.2% 30-day outcome. The company's fundamentals remain solid: quarterly revenue of $394.0M, net income of $721.0M, and an annual growth rate of +17.9%, supporting a P/E of 15.33. The transaction represents a discrete portfolio reduction near recent highs but provides no definitive signal of changed conviction given the limited historical pattern and the company's ongoing profitability.
