"Plan" marks trades the filing says were made under a pre-set Rule 10b5-1 trading plan, which are scheduled in advance.

Moves are the shares’ return including dividends minus the S&P 500’s, from the close on the first trading day after each report; the number of trades with a finished 12-month window is in brackets. Green means the trade went the insider’s way (a purchase ahead of the index, a sale followed by the shares trailing it). The 40 most active of 54 insiders are shown. A trade reported both by a director or officer and by a fund or company they are linked to counts once here, under the person. Purchases count only where the share price actually traded was at least $5. These figures describe what the shares did, not why anyone traded. Insiders across all companies.

When several insiders traded Colgate-Palmolive

After 14 selling crowds, −7.7%. One company's history is too short to judge by; the test across every company is the better guide.
