Root Jonathan R, Chief Financial Officer of Harley-Davidson (HOG), has demonstrated a consistent pattern of selling company stock over the past several years, with no recorded purchases in the available SEC filings. Since 2024, Root has executed 27 transactions totaling $316,715 in sales, all involving HOG shares. The transactions, primarily coded as "F" (indicating sales of securities acquired through derivative transactions like options exercises), show a steady liquidation of holdings. Notable sales include a $72,774 disposition on February 5, 2024, followed by multiple smaller transactions throughout 2025 and 2026, such as a $60,030 sale on February 6, 2026, and a $16,765 transaction on February 17, 2026. The absence of any buy transactions suggests a one-way reduction in equity exposure rather than portfolio rebalancing. While the sales are spread across multiple dates, they do not appear concentrated around earnings announcements or other material events, instead reflecting a gradual divestment. The lack of recent buys—coupled with the continued selling—indicates a persistent trend of decreasing ownership in Harley-Davidson. The transactions, while not unusually large for an executive of Root’s position, underscore a clear directional bias toward reducing his stake in the company over time.
