Hsieh Jackson (President and CEO) purchases 56,000 shares of MAC at $17.75, raising stake to 226,500 shares (+32.8%)
Hsieh Jackson, CEO of Macerich, acquired 56,000 shares at $17.75 on March 4, 2025, expanding his holdings by 32.8% to 226,500 shares total for $993.8K. This represents a significant personal capital commitment from the company's top executive. However, the transaction occurs against a backdrop of material headwinds: the stock trades at $18.17 currently, down 17.8% from its 52-week high and 11.2% over the past month, while the company operates with negative full-year net income of $-108.2M despite modest 3.9% annual revenue growth. Jackson's prior buy at this ticker in May 2024 achieved a 90-day return of +4.5%, demonstrating past instances of well-timed purchasing at MAC; his cross-ticker track record shows 100% 90-day win rate on 1 prior buy with +4.5% average return. The purchase timing aligns with recent price weakness, but fundamental profitability remains absent and current valuation (P/E 28.84) remains elevated despite the recent decline.
