Amphenol President Doherty sells 80.0K APH shares for $11.4M, exiting position entirely near 52-week highs

Doherty sold 80,000 shares at $142.00 on 2025-12-02, reducing his APH holdings to 0 shares. The transaction occurred at a price near the 52-week high of $143.85, with the stock -1.6% from that peak and trading 30-day +1.5% and 90-day +27.8%. His same-ticker history at APH shows 4 prior measurable sales with 0 of 4 well-timed at the 90-day mark (all 4 were followed by positive returns, meaning he sold before rallies). The fundamentals remain robust: $6.2B latest-quarter revenue, annual growth +21.2%, net income $1.2B, and P/E of 45.35. Complete elimination of a President's position warrants investor attention, particularly given the stock's recent rally and the absence of a track record of favorable exit timing at this ticker.

APH President Doherty sells 80,000 shares worth $11.3M; exits entire position as stock rallies +33.4% in 90 days.

William J Doherty, President of the CS Division at Amphenol, sold 80,000 shares at $141.04 on 2025-10-29, liquidating his entire holding and raising $11,282,928.00. This complete exit occurred as the stock was near 52-week highs (-0.5% from $139.75) and after a strong 90-day rally of +33.4%, marking a notably different context from his pattern of prior APH sales. His cross-ticker track record shows 37.50% well-timed sale rate, but at this specific ticker, 0 of 3 prior measurable APH sales were well-timed at the 90-day mark, with three prior 90-day returns of +25.0%, +32.7%, and +32.7% suggesting his recent APH sells preceded further gains. The sale timing relative to current fundamentals (P/E of 44.59, annual revenue growth +21.2%) warrants investor attention, particularly whether this full liquidation by a division president signals a view about near-term prospects or represents a separate strategic decision.

APH President/CS Division William J Doherty sells entire 226,000-share position for $24,767,588.60 across two trades

William J Doherty, President of the CS Division at Amphenol, executed two separate sales on 2025-08-08 and 2025-08-11, selling 113,000 shares at $108.89 and 113,000 shares at $110.29 respectively, for a combined $24,767,588.60 and a blended average price of $109.59. This transaction completely liquidates his 226,000-share holding (a -100.0% net change), with the current price at $111.85 now at the 52-week high and up 13.2% over 30 days and 30.6% over 90 days from the transaction dates. His prior sales at Amphenol over the past four months have generated positive 30-day and 90-day returns (ranging from +9.1% to +13.3% at 30 days, and +9.9% to +38.4% at 90 days where measurable), yet 0 of 4 such prior sales achieved negative 90-day returns—meaning none were well-timed in the sense of preceding a stock decline. The current position sale at $109.59 average compares to the $111.85 current price, indicating the insider sold just before a modest further gain, continuing a pattern of sales that have not preceded declines at this ticker.

APH: President William J Doherty sells entire 160,000-share stake for $14.3M at $89.54 as stock hits 52-week high

The sale occurs at the 52-week high of $90.36, representing a complete exit (–100.0% vs pre-transaction holdings) just days after two earlier sales on 2025-05-02 at the same price level. Within his cross-ticker track record, Doherty's prior seven sells posted a 90-day well-timed rate of 75.00%; however, at Amphenol specifically, outcomes are more mixed—his last four measurable trades at APH show 2 of 4 with positive 90-day returns (2024-08-15: +9.9%; 2024-02-02: –41.6%), indicating only partial foresight at this ticker. The cumulative effect is a disciplined lightening of exposure during an extended rally, with the stock up 12.0% over 30 days and 43.3% over 90 days entering the transaction.

APH President CS Division sells entire 126,000-share stake for $10,115,910 at $80.28; prior 4 measurable trades at APH 75% well-timed

Doherty executed 2 separate sales totaling 126,000 shares for $10,115,910.00 on 2025-05-02, liquidating his entire position in Amphenol. His prior 4 measurable sales at APH show 3 of them were well-timed at the 90-day mark (30d: -46.5%, 90d: -41.6% on 2024-02-02 twice; 30d: -52.6%, 90d: -49.1% on 2023-08-31), suggesting a pattern of selling before declines at this ticker. His cross-ticker track record shows a 75.00% well-timed rate with an average 90d return of -30.6% post-sale, further indicating historically disciplined exit timing. At current price $79.71, the stock is -1.2% from its 52-week high of $80.66 and is up 34.9% over 30 days and 14.7% over 90 days—meaning this sale occurred near cyclical resistance. The complete liquidation of a President's holdings, paired with this insider's demonstrated track record of selling ahead of downturns, warrants attention from investors monitoring Amphenol's near-term trajectory.

President of CS Division sells entire 100,000-share position ($7.5M) at $75.49; 3 of 4 prior APH sales were well-timed.

William J Doherty liquidated his entire 100.0K shares position in Amphenol at $75.49, raising $7,549,470.00 on April 25, 2025. His same-ticker trading history at APH shows a strong pattern of well-timed exits: 3 of 4 prior sells caught downturns, with 90-day returns of -3.4%, -46.5%, -46.5%, and -52.6% respectively. The current price of $76.68 sits -2.4% from the 52-week high of $78.55, suggesting the stock remains elevated. While this complete liquidation removes his direct equity stake in a company posting solid fundamentals ($4.8B quarterly revenue, +21.2% annual growth), the historical pattern of accurate downside calls at this ticker warrants attention to whether market conditions or company-specific factors prompted the exit.

Doherty sells entire 300.0K APH stake for $19.7M; prior 3 sales at APH averaged -47.6% 90d return with 100% well-timed rate

William J Doherty, President of CS Division, executed a complete liquidation of his 300,000 share position in Amphenol at $65.83 on 2024-08-15, exiting a holding that represented 100% of his disclosed APH shares. His track record at this specific ticker is notably consistent: all 3 prior sales show substantially negative 90-day returns (−46.5%, −46.5%, −52.6%), with a 90-day well-timed rate of 100.00%, indicating his recent sells have preceded stock declines. Against current price of $65.80 (−6.6% from the 52-week high of $70.41), this pattern suggests a history of successfully identifying inflection points, though the stock's recent 30-day appreciation of +2.5% creates tension with the broader directional signal. The presence of substantial recent institutional ownership, a P/E of 37.60, and flat annual revenue growth (−0.5%) provide context for why an executive with this timing record would exit completely.
