EVP Rubanenko sells 4,000 COST shares for $3.9M at $974.96; post-sale holds 5,774 shares.
Rubanenko Yoram, Executive Vice President, sold 4,000 shares of Costco for $3,899,852.00 at $974.96 on 2025-07-14, reducing his holding from 9,774 to 5,774 shares—a net reduction of 40.9% of his pre-transaction position. The sale occurred when the stock was trading 10.1% below its 52-week high of $1076.86. His prior sell at this ticker on 2024-01-18 was followed by a 90-day return of 5.1% (price rose after the sale), indicating poorly timed execution at that historical instance. The current trade follows a pattern of historically underperforming timing: his cross-ticker track record shows a 0.00% well-timed rate across all prior sells. The stock has declined 2.3% over the past 30 days, and Costco trades at a P/E of 54.70, reflecting a premium valuation in the current market environment.
