Vicor shares are under pressure after heavy insider selling triggered worries that the stock had run too far, too fast. Investors are reacting to what looks like a technical correction as sentiment turns more cautious following the recent price surge.
The slide was sparked by Chairman and CEO Patrizio Vinciarelli’s sale of about 49,900 shares worth roughly $9.8 million, along with additional director sales. These moves have fueled fears that executives see limited upside at current levels, pushing traders to reassess Vicor’s lofty valuation.
