Look at this.
Why it spread
This post spread because it hit a hot topic that week and came from an independent author, reaching 188,064 views with 654 likes, 80 reposts, 11 quotes, and 104 saves.
What worked
- The post leads with a blunt contrast: 172 insider trades over six months and zero purchases.
- It names specific executives and the dollar amounts they sold, such as the CFO at about $95 million and the COO at about $24 million.
- It uses a line chart to pair insider trading activity with stock price over time, and it carries a source line and branding.
What to borrow
We could take a timely market story, state the single most striking number up front, and pair a simple line chart with named examples from our own data.
Careful
Do not copy the alarmist framing or assume the sales are automatically bearish, since the post only shows insider selling and gives no context for why those trades happened.
