# Apple (AAPL) insider trading and SEC filings

Oct 5 Form 4: COOK TIMOTHY D (officer) filed an open-market sale of 191,753 AAPL shares at $331.44-$333.94. 8 filings shown from 5 insiders.

I read the 8 insider filings below, filed between Sep 29 and Oct 5, 2026, all on Form 4. Each one is about Apple stock and links to the original on EDGAR. They name 5 insiders: 5 officers. Of the filings, 4 report an open-market sale, 4 an option exercise, 4 shares withheld for tax, and 1 a gift (some filings report more than one type). None of the 4 filings reporting a sale also reports an option exercise by the same person on the same trade date. Apple's SEC record shows its latest 10-K filed Oct 31, 2025, its latest 10-Q Jul 31, 2026, and its latest 8-K Jul 30, 2026.
