Kratos Defense & Security Solutions fell 6.66% intraday following reports of insider selling. Key news included the CFO selling $484,350 in shares and a director disposing of $591,400 in stock, signaling reduced confidence among leadership. While the company secured $65 million in defense contracts and advanced its UAV collaboration with Taiwan, these positives were overshadowed by the sell-off. MarketBeat attributed the 6.6% decline directly to insider selling, with analysts noting valuation risks amid mixed investor sentiment. The stock’s recent volatility reflects ongoing reassessment of short-term risks versus long-term growth potential.
