AI Insider Summary

William M. Gottwald (CIK 0001182458, 299 transactions) has filed 25 back-to-back S-coded market sells of Tredegar Corp. (TG) between November 18, 2025 and June 12, 2026 — no buys, no option exercises, no plan awards interrupting the sequence. The 25 trades range from 4 shares ($8.50) to 54,269 shares ($8.70), collectively disposing of roughly 248,524 TG shares at prices between $7.76 and $9.13, an aggregate of approximately $1.9M over the seven-month window. His lifetime TG record is 285,029 buy-side against 313,708 sell-side shares — meaning he accumulated more TG than he has sold to date, and the recent distribution streak sits on top of a net-positive historical position. His Albemarle (ALB) history ended in May 2009 with 3,032,288 sell-side shares across 84 transactions — a separate, fully-closed chapter. The sharp observation is that the recent TG sell pattern — systematic, near-daily, near-flat price band — is mechanically identical to the liquidation style documented for Gottwald John D. (#78) in the prior analysis, suggesting either a coordinated family distribution plan or two individuals using the same broker execution algorithm for their separate TG positions.

The most distinctive feature of William M. Gottwald's recent TG file is the structural similarity to the Gottwald John D. filing analyzed in the prior entry: both share the same issuer (TG), both are running 25-event sell streaks across the same November 2025–June 2026 window, and both are trading in the same narrow $7.76–$9.13 price band. Whether this reflects a coordinated family distribution plan or independent use of the same broker's 10b5-1 execution algorithm, the algorithmic footprint is identical: near-daily, small-to-modest lot sells with no price discrimination.

Lifetime TG: net accumulator now in distribution.
