Significance 4/10

CFO Olsavsky sold 17,750 shares of AMZN at $222.74 on 2025-08-21 for $3,953,635; post-transaction holdings 49,000 shares.

Olsavsky sold 17,750 shares (26.6% of his pre-transaction holdings), reducing his stake from 66,750 to 49,000 shares. At his prior trades at AMZN, 2 of 5 prior sales were well-timed at the 90-day mark, though 3 of 5 saw gains after the sale (including a +13.1% return 90 days after his May 2025 sale). His cross-ticker track record shows 8 prior sales with a 25.00% well-timed rate and average 90-day return of 7.8%, indicating his sales have historically preceded slight gains more often than declines. The current price of $227.94 is 2.3% above the transaction price and 5.8% below the 52-week high, reflecting modest upside momentum. For a company with $167.7B in quarterly revenue, 11.0% annual growth, and 28.46 P/E, this single transaction by a senior executive does not suggest a coordinated shift in insider positioning.

Significance 5/10

CFO Brian Olsavsky sold 17,750 shares of AMZN at $201.57 on 2025-05-21 for $3,577,867.50, reducing holdings by 26.6%.

Brian Olsavsky, Senior Vice President and CFO, sold 17,750 shares at $201.57, reducing his post-transaction holdings to 49,000 shares from 66,750 shares. At the time of sale, AMZN was trading below its 52-week high of $242.06 (down 17.0%), and the stock was up 11.3% over the prior 30 days. His cross-ticker track record shows an average 90-day return of +7.0% after sells, with a well-timed rate of 28.57%, indicating his prior sales were generally poorly timed (stock rose after). At AMZN specifically, his 5 prior sells yielded mixed results: 2 of 5 achieved negative 90-day returns (well-timed), while 3 yielded positive returns. This sale represents a meaningful reduction of his AMZN position during a period of upward momentum, though the scale of the sale and lack of coordinated insider activity provide limited inferential power about forward direction.

Significance 5/10

Amazon CFO Olsavsky sold 14,620 shares at $223.14 for $3.3M; stock down 12.1% from 52-week high.

Brian T Olsavsky, Senior Vice President and CFO, sold 14,620 shares at $223.14 on 2025-02-21, reducing his holdings from 63,620 shares to 49,000 shares (a 23.0% reduction in his position). The sale occurred at a price now 12.1% above the current market price of $212.80 and within 4.9% of the 52-week high of $242.06. His prior AMZN trades show mixed timing outcomes: of 5 prior sales, only 1 was well-timed (the stock later fell), while 4 resulted in subsequent gains ranging from 2.2% to 17.9% over 90 days—indicating those sales generally preceded further stock appreciation. The current -12.1% pullback from the 52-week high and -9.4% 30-day decline position this sale differently than his recent pattern, where most prior AMZN sales were followed by positive returns.

Significance 5/10

CFO Brian T Olsavsky sells 14,600 shares of AMZN at $202.88 for $2,962,048; holdings drop 23.0% to 49,000 shares

On 2024-11-21, Brian T Olsavsky, Senior Vice President and CFO, sold 14,600 shares at $202.88, reducing his AMZN holdings by 23.0% from 63,600 to 49,000 shares. The sale occurred near the 52-week high (currently -5.9% from peak at $214.10), though recent 30-day and 90-day momentum remained positive (+7.2% and +16.4% respectively). Reviewing his prior AMZN trades over the past year, only 1 of 5 prior sells showed negative 90-day returns (well-timed exits before declines); the other four were followed by stock gains, indicating his recent sales at this ticker have generally been followed by appreciation. His cross-ticker track record shows 20.00% well-timed rate across all holdings, suggesting mixed timing effectiveness overall. Against a backdrop of strong Q3 fundamentals (revenue $158.9B, net income $15.3B, +11.8% annual growth), this represents a material reduction in his concentrated position rather than a signal of fundamental deterioration.

Significance 4/10

Amazon CFO Olsavsky sells 14,600 shares at $180.00 for $2,628,000; stock down 11.5% from 52-week high.

Olsavsky sold 14,600 shares (14.6K shares) at $180.00 on 2024-08-21, reducing his stake from 63,600 to 49,000 shares—a 23.0% reduction in holdings. The sale occurred at $180.00, while the current price stands at $177.04, down 11.5% from the 52-week high of $200.00. His cross-ticker track record shows 4 prior sells with a 90-day well-timed rate of 25.00%, but at Amazon specifically, only 1 of 4 prior sells demonstrated favorable 90-day returns (sell on 2023-11-21: +17.9%), while the most recent prior sale on 2024-05-21 saw a 90-day decline of -2.1%. This sale does not appear to align with his stronger historical outcomes at this ticker and occurs within a 13-month window of four separate sales at Amazon, suggesting a steady divestiture pattern independent of near-term price movements.
