Sanghi Steve, Executive Chair of Microchip Technology (MCHP), has demonstrated a clear selling bias in recent transactions, with $36.5 million in total sales outweighing $17.3 million in purchases across 62 reported trades. The activity has been concentrated exclusively in MCHP shares, with no transactions in other companies. Recent filings show a continuation of this trend, with three sales in early 2026 totaling $17.2 million—including a $7.8 million disposition on February 12 and two earlier January sales worth $7.96 million and $1.47 million. These follow a significant $9.08 million gift transfer in December 2025. Smaller transactions in February 2026, including multiple acquisitions under codes "A," "F," and "M," involved modest amounts ranging from $3,315 to $135,066, but these were dwarfed by the larger sales.
The pattern suggests a consistent reduction in Sanghi’s MCHP holdings over time, particularly in early 2026. While some smaller purchases and awards appear in the data—such as the $28,569 acquisition on March 2, 2026—they are exceptions rather than indicators of accumulation. The absence of recent buys and the scale of the sales, including the January and February dispositions, point to a net decrease in exposure. The transactions, especially the February 12 sale, represent some of the largest individual dispositions in the dataset, reinforcing the overall trend toward divestment rather than retention or expansion of his position.
