CEO Hall sells 18,296 shares (1.6% of holdings) for $9,993,925.88 across 9 transactions on 2024-11-08
Eugene A Hall, Chairman and CEO of Gartner, executed 9 separate sales totaling 18,296 shares for $9,993,925.88 on November 8, 2024, at prices ranging from $540.08 to $550.02 with a blended average of $546.24. His post-transaction holdings of 1,143,401 shares represent a 1.6% reduction from his pre-transaction position of 1,161,697 shares. The timing occurs with the stock at its 52-week high of $550.66, having appreciated 5.6% over the prior 30 days and 15.0% over 90 days. Across his cross-ticker open-market history, Hall's 20 prior sells averaged positive 90-day returns of 3.2% (poorly-timed in aggregate), with a well-timed rate of 26.67%; his 5 prior sales at Gartner in September 2024 showed 30-day gains of 2.8% to 3.7%, though no 90-day outcomes are yet measurable. The execution at or near a 52-week peak against a backdrop of modest long-term timing success merits investor attention as a data point on insider conviction at current valuations.
