What Happened?

Shares of pet insurance provider Trupanion (NASDAQ:TRUP) fell 2.3% in the morning session after news of a significant stock sale by a company insider. 

According to a report, Director Darryl Rawlings sold a total of 50,000 shares of common stock on September 3rd and 4th, for a total of $2.2 million. Large sales by high-level insiders can sometimes worry investors, as it might be interpreted as a lack of confidence in the company's future performance. The transactions followed a strong period for the pet insurance provider's stock, which had surged 35% over the previous six months, suggesting the sale could also be a case of profit-taking after the significant run-up in price.
