His cross-ticker track record shows 2 prior sells with a 90-day well-timed rate of 100.00% (both followed by stock declines), and at AMAT specifically, all 4 prior trades showed a 90-day win rate of 100.00%, with both prior sells at this ticker posting negative 90-day returns of -11.7% and -11.9%. The stock currently trades at $592.92, up 43.4% over 30 days and 66.0% over 90 days, and sits 4.9% below its 52-week high of $623.35, suggesting elevated valuation levels. The multi-day execution (2026-06-15/16) across a range of $590.03–$599.35 occurs after substantial recent gains.

AMAT CEO Dickerson buys 50,000 shares at blended avg $137.30 for $6.9M as stock -47.9% from 52-week high

Gary E. Dickerson, President and CEO of Applied Materials, executed 2 separate purchases totaling 50,000 shares (50.0K shares) for $6,865,081.79 at a blended average price of $137.30 on April 3, 2025. The purchase raised his holdings from 1.67M shares to 1.72M shares (+3.0%). This transaction is noteworthy given the stock's substantial recent weakness: the current price of $132.85 is -47.9% from the 52-week high of $254.97, and the stock has declined -14.7% over 30 days and -25.3% over 90 days. While Dickerson's cross-ticker track record shows 100.00% well-timed 90-day returns on his 2 prior sells (with a -24.0% average 90-day return), his AMAT-specific history consists of sells only (June 2024), with no measurable pattern on buys at this ticker. The company's fundamentals remain intact (Market cap $107.9B, P/E 17.01, revenue growth +2.5%) but the magnitude of recent price deterioration and the size of the CEO's capital deployment ($6.9M personal stake increase) merit close tracking of whether this reflects near-term opportunity or signals deeper concern about the valuation recovery timeline.

AMAT CEO Gary Dickerson sells 400,000 shares for $98.6M at $246.45 blended average; holdings fall 20.6%

Gary Dickerson, President and CEO of Applied Materials, executed 2 separate sales on 2024-06-18 totaling 400,000 shares (400.0K shares) for $98,579,110.55, reducing his post-transaction holdings to 1,542,269 shares from 1,942,269 shares. The transaction occurred at a blended average price of $246.45, near the 52-week high of $247.83, as the stock was -3.2% from its peak and up 9.2% over 30 days. The magnitude of this reduction—20.6% of pre-transaction holdings in a single filing—represents a substantial portfolio adjustment by the company's top executive. With AMAT trading at a P/E of 27.21 and having generated $1.7B in net income on $6.6B quarterly revenue, the timing and scale of this sale merit investor attention given the CEO's visibility into near-term business trajectory.
