This information can be invaluable to investors, as these high-level executives possess some information regarding the direction of the company that no one else has. When the CEO of a company dumps stock, it can be taken as a sign of bad news to come, which often leads to the company's shares falling. That's what's happening today with Evofem Biosciences.
