Key Terms

4 terms

open-market sale financial

"sold 2,698 shares of the Issuer's common stock on the open market at an average price"

An open-market sale is when a shareholder sells existing shares directly on a public exchange to any willing buyer, rather than through a private deal. Think of it like putting goods on a busy market stall where price is set by supply and demand; for investors it matters because such sales increase available supply, can put short-term downward pressure on the stock price, and signal changes in liquidity or investor confidence.

Form 4 regulatory
