From a legal standpoint, the term "insider" pertains to any officer, director, or beneficial owner holding more than ten percent of a company’s equity securities as outlined in Section 12 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. This encompasses executives in the c-suite and significant hedge funds. These insiders are mandated to inform the public of their transactions through a Form 4 filing, to be submitted within two business days of the transaction. A company insider's new purchase is a indicator of their positive anticipation for a rise in the stock. While insider sells may not necessarily reflect a bearish view and can be motivated by various factors. ### Exploring Key Transaction Codes Delving into transactions, investors typically prioritize those unfolding in the open market, as precisely outlined in Table I of the Form 4 filing. A **P** in Box 3 indicates a purchase, while **S** signifies a sale. Transaction code **C** signals the conversion of an option, and transaction code **A** denotes a grant, award, or other acquisition of securities from the company. **Check Out The Full List Of Seagate Technology Hldgs's Insider Trades.** *This article was generated by Benzinga's automated content engine and reviewed by an editor.* ### Related Stocks - [STX.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/STX.US.md) - [STXX.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/STXX.US.md) - [STXL.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/STXL.US.md) - [STXU.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/STXU.US.md) - [WDC.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/WDC.US.md) - [WDCVV.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/WDCVV.US.md) ## Related News & Research - [Seagate Technology Holdings (STX) Launches FireCuda Forge As Undervalued Narrative Faces A Fresh Test](https://longbridge.com/en/news/305184167.md) - [Seagate’s FireCuda Forge moves your data between a hard drive and SSD for better performance](https://longbridge.com/en/news/304999372.md) - [Seagate Technology declares $0.76 dividend](https://longbridge.com/en/news/303423043.md) - [Seagate Technology EVP and CTO John Christopher Morris sells $1.74 million in common shares](https://longbridge.com/en/news/304174893.md) - [Stacks Bond 2 sells out with 505 BTC enrolled](https://longbridge.com/en/news/305365271.md) --- > **Disclaimer: This article is for reference only and does not constitute any investment advice.**
