Claire Herkes, EVP of Conferences, has demonstrated a clear selling bias in her trading activity involving Gartner, Inc. (NYSE: IT), the sole company in her transaction history. Over 35 reported trades, her total sales amount to $3.35 million, dwarfing her $551,313 in purchases—a nearly six-to-one ratio favoring dispositions. Her most recent transactions in February 2026 involved four sales totaling $170,371 via "F" coded transactions (indicating gifts, charitable contributions, or other non-open market transfers), following a $84,982 open-market sale in December 2025. Notably, her largest acquisition occurred in November 2025 when she acquired $551,313 worth of shares through derivative transactions (code "M"), though this was immediately preceded by a $735,459 disposition the same month. Earlier in 2025, Herkes executed multiple sales totaling $998,393 across February transactions, with the largest single trade being a $474,925 disposition on February 10. The pattern suggests consistent monetization of her IT holdings, with only one material buy in the past two years offset by multiple mid-to-high six-figure sales. Herkes' activity remains concentrated in Gartner stock, with no diversification into other securities evident in the filings. The absence of recent purchases—coupled with February 2026's cluster of dispositions—reinforces her multi-year trend of reducing exposure to her employer's equity.
