Significance 7/10

Broadcom CEO Tan Hock E sells 70,000 shares for $24.3M; stock down 18.2% in 30 days, trading 19.5% below 52-week high

Tan Hock E, Broadcom's President and CEO, executed 3 separate sales totaling 70,000 shares for $24,310,684.42 on 2026-01-06, reducing his post-transaction holdings to 132.8K shares (a -34.5% reduction from 202.8K pre-transaction). The blended average sale price was $347.30, yet the current stock price is $332.48—11.8% below his transaction prices—indicating the stock has declined since he divested. The broader context shows significant downward momentum: Broadcom is down 18.2% over the past 30 days and trades 19.5% below its 52-week high of $412.97. Against this backdrop, his substantial sales of shares at prices near the recent peak merit attention, particularly given the stock's sharp recent deterioration. Although his cross-ticker track record shows modest historical timing success (14.29% well-timed rate across 20 prior sells, with an average 90-day return of +14.7%), his 5 prior trades at AVGO offer no measurable outcome data yet, leaving no established pattern at this specific ticker to reference.

Significance 6/10

CEO Tan Hock E sold 100.0K shares for $34.6M across 12 transactions on 2025-12-23; post-sale holdings 495.6K shares.

Tan Hock E, President and CEO of Broadcom Inc., executed 12 separate sales totaling 100,000 shares for $34,564,807.47 on 2025-12-23, reducing his holdings by 16.8%. The blended average sale price was $345.65, within the recent trading range. His cross-ticker track record shows 20 prior sells with an average 90-day return of -16.9% and a 90-day well-timed rate of 42.11%, suggesting below-average predictive accuracy. At AVGO specifically, his prior 4 measurable sales all resulted in positive 90-day returns (+0.4% to +26.5%), meaning he sold before subsequent stock appreciation—a pattern of poorly-timed exits at this ticker. Current price of $349.39 sits 15.4% below the 52-week high and down 13.3% over 30 days, yet 5.9% up over 90 days. The large round-lot sale executed on a single day warrants review of any contemporaneous disclosure or planned trading arrangement context.

$42,382,600
Significance 6/10

Broadcom CEO TAN HOCK E sold 130,000 shares ($42.4M) at $326.02; holds 595.6K shares post-sale. 0 of 5 prior AVGO sales were well-timed at 90 days.

TAN HOCK E, President and CEO of Broadcom, executed a $42.4M sale of 130,000 shares at $326.02 on 2025-12-18, reducing holdings from 725.6K to 595.6K shares (a 17.9% reduction in position). Stock currently trades at $341.45, implying the sale occurred at a 4.5% discount to current levels. His prior trades at AVGO tell a cautionary story: across 5 preceding sales at this ticker, none were well-timed at the 90-day mark—the most recent two in June 2025 posted 90-day returns of +29.2% and +26.5%, meaning the stock rallied sharply after he sold. His cross-ticker track record shows 20 prior sells with a 45.00% well-timed rate and a -20.5% average 90-day return, suggesting mixed execution in predicting post-sale price action. The 17.9% position reduction combined with zero well-timed exits in the same-ticker history suggests he has struggled to time exits at this particular holding.

Significance 7/10

CEO Tan Hock E sold 100,000 shares for $33,958,393.27 at blended avg $339.58 on 2025-09-23.

CEO Tan Hock E executed two separate sales totaling 100,000 shares (100.0K shares) for $33,958,393.27 ($34.0M) on 2025-09-23, reducing holdings by 12.1% to 725.6K shares. The sales occurred at prices ($339.22 and $340.26) near the 52-week high of $369.57, with current price at $336.10 representing a -9.1% discount from peak. Notably, his cross-ticker track record shows a 90d well-timed rate of 57.89%, but at AVGO specifically, only 1 of 4 prior measurable sales were well-timed at the 90-day mark; his most recent AVGO sales on 2025-06-12, 2025-06-24, and 2025-06-26 all produced positive 90d returns (+8.5%, +29.2%, +26.5%), indicating poorly timed exits that preceded further gains. Broadcom's fundamentals remain strong (Annual revenue growth +44.0%, P/E 264.65, $1,587.2B market cap), and the 30-day price movement is +12.8%, leaving the timing signal from this particular sale ambiguous pending future price action.

Significance 6/10

AVGO CEO Tan Hock E sold 148.2K shares at $336.67 for $49.9M; stock up 16.4% in 30 days, 44.7% in 90 days post-sale

CEO Tan Hock E sold 148,154 shares on 2025-09-10 at $336.67, reducing holdings by 15.2% to 825,998 shares. The stock has since risen $359.87 currently, posting +16.4% over 30 days and +44.7% over 90 days—meaning this sale was poorly timed relative to the subsequent rally. His cross-ticker track record shows a 90d well-timed rate of 66.67%, but at AVGO specifically, only 1 of 3 prior sales with measurable outcomes were well-timed at the 90-day mark, suggesting inconsistent timing ability at this ticker. With a P/E of 283.36 and revenue growing at +44.0%, the company's valuation is stretched, yet the CEO's recent sales pattern at AVGO (two additional sells in June 2025) has also been followed by stock gains, raising a question of whether these dispositions reflect portfolio management unrelated to conviction about near-term fundamentals.

Significance 4/10

AVGO CEO Tan Hock E sold 40,000 shares at $268.29; stock at 52-week high; prior AVGO sales mostly poorly-timed.

Tan Hock E, President and CEO of Broadcom, sold 40,000 shares (40.0K shares) at $268.29 on 2025-06-26, reducing his holdings by 7.7% to 482.8K shares. The sale occurred at $268.29 while the current price is $275.65—near the 52-week high—and the stock has appreciated 13.9% over 30 days and 63.6% over 90 days. Examining his same-ticker history at AVGO, his prior four completed trades show mixed timing: the December 2024 sale was well-timed (90d return -20.3%), but sales on 2024-10-04 and 2024-10-03 saw the stock rise 32.7% and 34.5% respectively post-sale—poorly timed outcomes. This sale's execution near the 52-week high stands in contrast to that mixed historical pattern at this ticker; however, given the stock's recent strength and the lack of measurable post-sale outcomes yet, the absence of a clear trend in same-ticker timing limits forward inference.

Significance 5/10

AVGO CEO Tan Hock E sold 40,000 shares at $262.17 (06/24/25); stock now at $264.65. Prior AVGO sales poorly timed.

CEO Tan Hock E sold 40,000 shares (40.0K shares) for $10,486,920.00 ($10.5M) at $262.17, reducing holdings to 974,152 shares (974.2K shares). The stock has since appreciated to $264.65 (+0.0% from its 52-week high of $264.65), trading near record levels. Reviewing his same-ticker history at AVGO, Tan's prior four measurable sales have shown poor 90-day timing: three of the four prior sells were followed by positive returns (+32.7%, +34.5%, +41.0%), indicating he sold before subsequent advances. His cross-ticker track record shows 20 prior sells with a 73.68% well-timed rate (where well-timed = stock fell after the sale), yet at AVGO specifically only 1 of 4 prior measurable sales achieved negative 90-day returns. The June 2025 sale occurred as AVGO fundamentals remain strong (revenue $15.0B, net income $5.0B, +44.0% annual growth), though valuation is stretched at a P/E of 208.39. This sale represents a modest 3.9% reduction in holdings and occurs near the stock's all-time highs, but his demonstrated pattern of poorly-timed AVGO exits in 2024 suggests limited predictive value for this transaction.

Significance 6/10

Broadcom CEO Tan Hock E sold 117,758 shares at $252.91 for $29.8M, reducing holdings by 10.4%

Tan Hock E, President and CEO, executed a substantial open-market sale of 117,758 shares (117.8K shares) at $252.91 on 2025-06-12, generating $29,782,175.78 in proceeds and reducing his holdings from 1,131,910 to 1,014,152 shares (a -10.4% reduction). This sale occurs at a price near the 52-week high of $261.08 (approximately -3.4% from peak), following a recent 90-day appreciation of +33.6%. Notably, his same-ticker history shows mixed timing outcomes: of 5 prior sells at AVGO, only 1 was well-timed at the 90-day mark, with most prior sales followed by positive returns rather than declines. His cross-ticker track record across all open-market sales shows a 75.00% well-timed rate with an average 90-day return of -53.2%, suggesting stronger predictive timing in other securities; however, at Broadcom specifically, the pattern differs considerably. The sale is material relative to both his remaining holdings and total market cap, warranting monitoring of whether this represents a broader shift in conviction toward the position.

Significance 5/10

CEO Tan Hock E sold 45,000 AVGO shares at $239.96 (12/24/24); holds 712.8K post-sale. Stock +51.4% in 30d, yet prior AVGO sells posted mixed timing.

Tan Hock E, President and CEO, sold 45,000 shares (45.0K shares) of Broadcom Inc. at $239.96 on 2024-12-24, reducing holdings from 757.8K to 712.8K shares (a -5.9% reduction). The stock has appreciated significantly since the sale—51.4% in the 30-day window and 40.0% over 90 days—indicating the insider sold before a rally. Examining his prior trades at AVGO specifically, his most recent measurable sell on 2024-09-24 posted a 90d return of +34.4%, meaning the stock rose after that sale; the sale on 2024-09-17 also posted +53.0% over 90 days—both instances in which the stock moved upward following his sales. This suggests his historical timing at this ticker has not favored identifying local peaks or downturns. The current market price of $241.75 is within 3.3% of the 52-week high, and the company's net income of $-1.9B against revenue of $13.1B and an elevated P/E of 190.35 underscore a valuation backdrop worth tracking alongside subsequent insider activity.

Significance 6/10

Broadcom CEO Tan Hock E sells 40,000 shares for $6,943,980.00 across two days at blended avg $173.60

Tan Hock E executed 2 separate sales totaling 40,000 shares for $6,943,980.00 on 2024-10-03 and 2024-10-04, reducing his holdings by 3.4% from 1,171,910 to 1,131,910 shares. The sales occurred at $172.32 and $174.87 per share, near the 52-week high of $182.89, while the stock has risen 27.8% over the prior 30 days and currently trades at $175.08. Broadcom's fundamentals show net income of $-1,875,000,000.00 (a loss) on revenue of $13,072,000,000.00, a $-1.9B net income position that merits investor attention. His cross-ticker track record shows a 100.00% well-timed rate on sells with an average 90-day return of -88.5%, though his same-ticker history at AVGO is more limited with only 1 of 1 measurable 90-day outcomes well-timed; near-term signals remain obscured as three of his five prior AVGO trades lack measurable outcomes.
