Summary

Joseph John Corso, CFO of nLIGHT, sold 55,719 shares worth $3.88M in May 2026 — a major portion of his holdings — amid the company’s 400% stock surge over the past year. The sale, part of a pre-approved trading plan and tax-covered vesting, was a standard liquidity move for insiders, not a red flag. nLIGHT’s laser tech, especially defense-focused, is booming thanks to rising global demand and government spending. Corso still retains over 177K shares, and the transaction followed all insider trading protocols. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
