President and CEO · Vistra Corp. (VST)
This is the public record of open-market stock transactions James A. Burke has reported to the SEC on Form 4 as President and CEO of Vistra Corp. (VST). Every figure below is the reported share count multiplied by the reported price, so the dollar amounts are exact disclosed values rather than estimates. It is a record of what has been filed, not a portfolio or a recommendation, and insider selling in particular is routine and rarely a signal on its own.
Most of James A. Burke's sales were pre-scheduled or tax-related rather than discretionary, which further weakens any read of them as a market call.
All 21 disclosed transactions, newest filing first.
How many shares has James A. Burke bought and sold?

Is James A. Burke selling a bearish signal?
Not on its own. Insiders sell for many reasons that have nothing to do with a view on the stock — diversification, taxes, estate planning, or a pre-scheduled plan set up months earlier. Of the 20 sales on this record, 20 were made under a Rule 10b5-1 plan and 20 were automatic tax withholding on vesting shares, leaving 0 that were the insider's own discretionary decision (worth $0). Buying is the cleaner signal, because there is only one reason to buy. This page is a record, not a recommendation.
