Insiders At Elevance Health Sold US$6.9m In Stock, Alluding To Potential Weakness
Over the past year, many Elevance Health, Inc. (NYSE:ELV) insiders sold a significant stake in the company which may have piqued investors' interest. Knowing whether insiders are buying is usually more helpful when evaluating insider transactions, as insider selling can have various explanations. However, when multiple insiders sell stock over a specific duration, shareholders should take notice as that could possibly be a red flag. While insider transactions are not the most important thing when it comes to long-term investing, logic dictates you should pay some attention to whether insiders are buying or selling shares. AI is about to change healthcare. These 20 stocks are working on everything from early diagnostics to drug discovery. The best part - they are all under $10bn in marketcap - there is still time to get in early. Over the last year, we can see that the biggest insider sale was by the Executive VP & President of Commercial Health Benefits, Charles Kendrick, for US$3.2m worth of shares, at about US$432 per share. We generally don't like to see insider selling, but the lower the sale price, the more it concerns us. The silver lining is that this sell-down took place above the latest price (US$384). So it may not tell us anything about how insiders feel about the current share price. In the last year Elevance Health insiders didn't buy any company stock.

The last quarter saw substantial insider selling of Elevance Health shares. Specifically, insiders ditched US$3.5m worth of shares in that time, and we didn't record any purchases whatsoever. This may suggest that some insiders think that the shares are not cheap. Many investors like to check how much of a company is owned by insiders. A high insider ownership often makes company leadership more mindful of shareholder interests. Elevance Health insiders own 0.1% of the company, currently worth about US$101m based on the recent share price. Most shareholders would be happy to see this sort of insider ownership, since it suggests that management incentives are well aligned with other shareholders. Insiders haven't bought Elevance Health stock in the last three months, but there was some selling. And even if we look at the last year, we didn't see any purchases.

Megan Thee Stallion Will Drop An Anime Series On Amazon Prime Video
Megan Thee Stallion/My Hero Academia Leon Bennett/FilmMagic, GETTY/ Studio Bones One of the highest-profile musicians in the world, Megan Thee Stallion, will branch into a new form of media soon enough, and Amazon Prime Video will help her do it. Stallion spoke at a panel at DreamCon in Houston, dressed up in Yoruichi Shihōin from Bleach cosplay, announced that she would have an anime series released on Amazon Prime Video. "You ain't never seen an anime like this ever in your life,' she said but offered no details other than the fact that she collaborated with The Boondocks' Carl Jones for the project. Even with no details, it would not be safe to assume this will simply be a series that's a fictionalization of Stallion's life or music career. The reason all this is not as random as it sounds is the fact that Stallion is a huge anime fan, from her outfits to her song lyrics to her extensive knowledge of the genre, which all led to the creation of this series, whatever it may be. If there are no further details on the show, it's not clear how far off it may be if nothing is ready to be shared, not even a concept, much less footage. But the fact that Stallion was making an anime series was revealed seven months ago, so it may be somewhat far along in production. I'm not sure what an anime that we've 'never seen like this in your life' may consist of, as that's a pretty broad range, but at the very least, we know this likely means a whole lot to Stallion, given her interest in the genre. Previously, she's said that My Hero Academia is one of her favorites, and she's cosplayed as characters from the show (see above). There is skepticism in the anime community about the project coming from Stallion, where this would be a huge departure from her music career, but she has the resources to expand, and we'll have to see how this plays out. It's a little surprising that her show is landing on Amazon Prime Video rather than Netflix or Crunchyroll, as those two usually grab most animation/anime projects, but who knows what the behind-the-scenes reasoning may be for that. It would be nice to have more details about this project, but it seems we'll have to wait a little longer for that. Follow me on Twitter, YouTube, and Instagram. Pick up my sci-fi novels the Herokiller series and The Earthborn Trilogy.

FMR FDA COMMISSIONER KESSLER: Sorry guys, that beer gut isn't cool. It's killing you
Men can get away with being fat. The beer belly is often joked about as a relatable feature of the typical male body. The reality is it is killing them. Studies have shown that men are less likely than women to see themselves as fat or overweight. They rationalize excess weight by prioritizing functionality and success. The acceptance of the "dad bod" reinforces this; it is seen as the hallmark of the "everyman" who relates to common struggles. In reality, many men don't feel good about carrying excess weight. Joking about one's "dad bod" is less an embracing and more of an embarrassed resignation. The passive acceptance of increased body fat — particularly belly fat — is proving deadly. Toxic visceral fat that accumulates in the abdomen gets into the liver, pancreas and heart. In contrast to the fat that sits just under our skin, deeper visceral fat is less able to hold on to fat molecules and is metabolically active, leaking free fatty acids and other molecules that cause inflammation. It also creates metabolic chaos, elevating insulin levels and laying the groundwork for insulin resistance. Men, especially as they get older, have more of this fat than women, especially compared to women before menopause. About two out of every five men, about 40-46%, in the United States meet the classification of obesity. Even men who are not overweight or obese but have increased visceral fat have an increased risk of mortality. This toxic fat causes cardiovascular and kidney disease, diabetes, certain cancers and likely contributes to neurodegenerative disease. Greater visceral fat is associated with increased mortality from all causes. Even if it does not result in an earlier death, it increases risk of disability from conditions such as diabetes and heart failure. I look around and see too many men suffering from these preventable conditions. And most have no idea how to tackle it. A waist circumference of more than 40 inches is an indicator that a man has too much visceral fat. While beer guts and dad bods are obvious signs of unhealthy fat accumulation, health-minded men who spend a good deal of time in the gym are not immune from this issue. In the course of researching my book, I attended a seminar on strength training in Los Angeles, where most men in the crowd could deadlift far more than I could. I asked an instructor about the composition of these barrel-shaped guys. "Many of them are strong, but they still carry too much body fat," he confessed. Even for this group, there is a lot of fat accompanying their large muscles. The key, then, is reducing the excess fat around the waist while maintaining as much muscle as possible. Men die at a younger age than women, on average five years sooner, in part because of this increased visceral fat. It's important to address the cultural standards reinforcing unhealthy body weight in men. And, while it would also be ideal to change the current food environment, that is unlikely to happen completely or anytime soon. The new anti-obesity medications provide an important tool for men to reclaim their health, but they are not a cure-all. They cause us to eat less, sometimes much less, which can be risky. These drugs work by their gastrointestinal effects, keeping food in the stomach longer, generating feelings that border on nausea, and sometimes outright distress, which induce feelings of fullness and satiation. Those feelings are able to counter the rewarding and addictive properties of food, reducing the "food noise" that reverberates in heads of people who have a hard time controlling their appetite. One of the gifts of these medications is that people condition themselves to eat less to avoid experiencing the ill effects of food staying in the stomach longer. A waist circumference of more than 40 inches is an indicator that a man has too much visceral fat. There are a lot of questions concerning these drugs that still need to be answered, especially around how they should be used in the real world. They are not for everybody, have a real risk of adverse events, and require good medical and dietary care. But they can help people control their appetite and learn to eat in a more healthful way. The American male body is in trouble, and the way to make it healthy again isn't simple, but it can be done with education and commitment. And it begins with making space for men to discuss their health vulnerabilities without stigma or shame. It is a matter of life and death.
