[Form 4] Virtus Artificial Intelligence & Technology Opportunities Fund Insider Trading Activity

Rhea-AI Filing Summary

SEC Form 4 filed for Virtus Artificial Intelligence & Technology Opportunities Fund (AIO) discloses that William Patrick Bradley III, EVP, CFO & Treasurer of Virtus Investment Partners, directly purchased 2,000 common shares on 07/29/2025 at $24.79 each, a cash outlay of roughly $49.6 k. His beneficial ownership now totals 2,000 shares; no prior holdings or derivative positions were reported and there were no disposals. The filing contains no other transactions or material corporate events. While insider buying by a senior officer often signals confidence, the dollar value is relatively modest and, by itself, unlikely to be a major catalyst for the fund’s market price.

Positive

• Senior officer insider purchase: EVP & CFO acquired 2,000 shares (~$49.6 k), indicating personal confidence and marginally increasing insider alignment.

Negative

• None.

Insights

Securities Analyst

TL;DR: Minor insider buy; positive signal but limited market impact.

The CFO’s $50 k purchase marginally aligns management’s interests with shareholders and can be interpreted as a show of confidence in AIO’s outlook. However, the size represents a negligible percentage of fund assets and will not meaningfully affect liquidity or NAV. Given the absence of other corporate developments, I view the disclosure as neutral to slightly positive for investors.
