So Kirby's CEO just sold off a chunk of his shares back in late February - like $4.4 million worth. Kind of interesting timing after the company absolutely crushed their Q4 earnings. The guy still holds nearly 100k shares after the sale, so it's not like he's bailing completely, just taking some profits I guess.

The thing about Kirby is most people don't really think about them, but they're basically running America's biggest barge operation. Moving petroleum, chemicals, all that industrial stuff up and down the Mississippi. Sounds boring but apparently it's a solid business - the stock was already up 18% for the year by the end of February, and just that month alone it jumped 10.5%.

Honestly if you're looking for something outside the usual tech hype, Kirby's one of those companies that actually does something essential. Whether it's a buy right now though, that's a different question. Just thought it was worth noting when insiders start selling, even if they're not dumping everything.
