Google CEO

The founder of Google has sold $1 billion in stocks since May, the most since 2017

Posted on July 31, 2021September 6, 2021 By Haris Daniyel

Since May of this year, Google founder and Alphabet majority shareholder Larry Page and Sergey Brin have sold more than $ 1 billion worth of stock.


According to documents filed by OpenInsider with the US Securities and Exchange Commission, since May of this year, the two have sold Class A and Class C shares worth more than $ 1.07 billion.

Brin’s sales totaled more than US $ 610 million, and Page’s sales this week (including a financing round) now exceed US $ 462 million. Both founders are selling according to a previously submitted transaction plan.


The last time Brin and Page sold shares was in 2017, when their last plan expired. Since the beginning of this year, the company’s stock price has performed well.

Alphabet A stocks have risen by more than 50% so far, outperforming Nasdaq and other technology giants (Amazon, Apple, Facebook, and Microsoft). The company announced strong revenue and earnings for the second quarter of 2021 on Wednesday as it rebounded from the worst impact of the Covid pandemic, which included an annualized growth of 69% in advertising revenue to more than $50 billion in three months.


At the end of 2019, Page resigned as CEO of Alphabet and transferred power to Google CEO Sundar Pichai. At the same time, Sergey Brin resigned as President of Alphabet, and his position was also cancelled.


Page and Brin were the co-founders of Google in 1998. They are still members of the board of directors and have a majority stake in the company, controlling 51% of the voting shares of Alphabet in a special category. The two are one of the richest people in the world.

Although Brin appeared in Google’s first retail store in New York this week,
lone Silicon Valley billionaires have kept a low profile since leaving the leadership role. According to Insider reports, it is reported that Page spent a lot of time on a yacht in the Fiji Islands during the pandemic.

  • “My room is sound-locked,” said Sears of the acoustic retrofitting of his living quarters. “So I can’t hear the machines when I close my door, but they are definitely noisy if I have my door open.” The machines generate about 80 decibels of noise apiece — but Sears says he likes being as close to the action as possible. It also beats making the half hour commute each way from his parents’ house in White Salmon. The 19 year-old has spent pretty much every single day for the last two years teaching himself the nuances of how mining machines work – and crucially, how to fix them. He believes his education in soldering and electronics is worth a whole lot more to him than a university degree. “I don’t think about going to college at all, just pursuing further knowledge in the repairs of the miners,” continued Sears. CNBC spoke with multiple miners for this story. Many explained that the allure of mining comes from being able to tangibly grasp the power of bitcoin. “If you’ve been to any of these data centers, the first thing you’ll notice is just how vast and how impressive they are. They’re huge,” said explained Thomas Heller, chief business officer for Compass Mining, which works with Sears’ employer, SCATE Ventures. “There’s so much noise, and there’s so much heat. There’s just so much action going on. It is quite cool to walk into a data center for the first time that’s mining bitcoin, because you can really connect the intangible aspects of bitcoin as a currency, with the physical nature of these machines consuming power and doing these calculations.”
