Larry Ellison's Insider Record: $7.6 Billion in Career ORCL Sales Across 2,408 Filings

Oracle's top insider just posted one of the largest long-run sell records on file

Larry Ellison's insider ledger at Oracle is massive by any market standard: 2,408 total Form 4 transactions, $7,607,657,071 in cumulative sell value, and only $958,750 in cumulative buy value, based on the latest insider profile data for reporter CIK 0000901999. His most recent transaction date is 2025-10-23. For investors tracking concentrated founder influence and ongoing insider flow in megacap software, this is the headline number that matters right now.

Start with the two core dashboards: Oracle's stock page at /stocks/ORCL and Ellison's insider profile at /insiders/ellison-lawrence-joseph-0000901999. The short version is simple: this is not a one-off sale story. It is a multi-decade insider record with repeated exercise-and-sell mechanics, plus periodic award activity.

Recent transaction breakdown (latest 50 records)

The latest 50 entries for Ellison show a mixed pattern of option-related and sale-related activity: 25 code M transactions, 20 code S transactions, and 5 code A transactions. That mix is important because headline sell pressure often sits inside exercise-and-disposition cycles rather than isolated discretionary sells.

Why this matters now

Ellison is not a minor insider. He is Oracle's co-founder and long-time strategic center of gravity, now serving as CTO and Executive Chairman. When a figure with that level of operational influence posts a multibillion-dollar cumulative sell record, market participants treat it as a structural data point, not noise.

Context also matters beyond Form 4 mechanics. Ellison remains one of the world's wealthiest technology founders, has made high-profile real-asset bets such as large-scale island ownership in Hawaii, and is deeply associated with Oracle's current push into cloud and AI infrastructure positioning. That means every fresh insider filing tends to be interpreted through two lenses at once: personal liquidity management and conviction in Oracle's forward AI narrative.

For traders and long-horizon holders, the practical takeaway is that insider flow should be read in sequence, not isolation. A single filing can look aggressive; a long series can look routine; and only the combination of code mix, pricing fields, and ownership-after data can separate signal from administrative churn. Keep tracking that sequence in the live insider page and compare it against price action and ownership concentration signals tied to ORCL.

What to watch next

1) New code S clusters: If additional priced sell lines appear near current levels, that can reinforce the market's read on near-term liquidity pressure.

2) Exercise cadence (code M): Continued high-volume option exercises may precede or accompany future sell events; watch date proximity between M and S filings.

3) Shares owned after each filing: The direction and pace of ownership change can matter more than one-day transaction value spikes.

4) Oracle narrative vs. insider flow: If Oracle's AI and cloud messaging accelerates while insider sell disclosures remain elevated, valuation sensitivity can increase around earnings and guidance windows.

5) Cross-check with platform coverage: Follow new filing updates in /news, compare broader event context in /insights, and keep Ellison-specific history open at his insider page.

Bottom line

Larry Ellison's Oracle insider history is now one of the clearest high-scale sell profiles in the database: $7.6 billion sold across 2,408 total transactions, with latest activity in 2025Q4. The data does not suggest a one-day anomaly. It points to a long-running, recurring insider pattern that investors should continue to monitor filing by filing.
