Coinbase Global, Electronic Arts And 2 Other Stocks Executives Are Selling
The Nasdaq 100 closed slightly higher during Tuesday’s session. Investors, meanwhile, focused on some notable insider trades.

Insider sales should not be taken as the only indicator for making an investment or trading decision. At best, it can lend conviction to a selling decision.
