Same time range as the chart above - each mark sits under the week of the trade. Circles = purchases (height = price paid, size = amount), red triangles = open-market sales of $50k+. Prices as reported, not adjusted for later stock splits. 15 older purchases (before the 5-year window) are listed in the table below.

Purchases are open-market buys (SEC Form 4, code "P") - insiders paying with their own money. Sales are open-market sales (code "S") of $50,000 or more; many sales are pre-planned (Rule 10b5-1) or made for taxes and diversification. Each row links to the original filing.
