The period balance: money in, money out
In the Form 4 filings submitted between Sep 11, 2025 and Oct 7, 2026 there is not one open-market purchase of Diamondback Energy, Inc.: 59 sales worth $8.91B and zero dollars bought.
Only codes P and S count, where an insider puts in or takes out their own money. A selling balance like Diamondback Energy, Inc.'s is the norm in the S&P 500, where much of the pay comes as stock. It is not a recommendation to buy or sell: it is what was filed.
Every transaction, code by code
| Code | What it means | Trades | Reported amount |

Who has traded
Over the 15 months of history, 20 distinct people or entities have filed Diamondback Energy, Inc. transactions: none bought on the open market and 11 sold. Counted by CIK, the fixed number the SEC gives each filer, and not by name, which each filer types their own way.

How to read this data
4 of the 20 sales in the table are flagged as scheduled (10b5-1 plan): signed months ahead and executed automatically, so they say nothing about what the insider thinks today. Diamondback Energy has no open-market purchase (code P) in the history, the most common case in the S&P 500: insiders are already paid in stock. The latest filing is from Oct 7, 2026, and a Form 4 arrives up to two business days after the trade.
19 of the 20 rows in the table carry footnotes from the Form 4 itself, folded into the code column and copied verbatim; a row with no footnote means the filing has none.

- Who really moves the market: the types of investorWho sits on the other side of each order, and where a company's own insiders fit among them.
- Supply, demand and price: why it rises and falls constantlyHow a piece of news ends up inside the price, and why the reaction to a filed sale is rarely the one you would expect.
