Weekly signal history
KMT appeared in 1 archived weekly edition as a multi-insider cluster, a top net buyer, or both. These are frozen weekly snapshots, not a complete filing history.
- Week of Oct 7, 2026 2 insiders buying · -$549,085 net
An entry means this company met that edition’s displayed cluster or top-buyer threshold. Missing weeks do not mean no insider transaction occurred. All figures are derived from SEC Form 4 filings; open-market buys minus sales are shown as net only when every transaction value was disclosed.
How to read this: an open-market purchase (Form 4 code P) is a buy at the market price with the insider’s own money, as opposed to a grant, award or option exercise; an open-market sale is code S. When two or more distinct insiders report open-market purchases in the same 90-day window, this site labels that a cluster — a definition, not a forecast; see insider cluster buying. “Held after” is Form 4 Table I column 5; “Change” = shares ÷ holdings before the trade (held after − shares for an acquisition, held after + shares for a disposition).
Insider Buying at KMT
Insiders reported 2 open-market purchases of KMT in the trailing 90 days, across 2 distinct buyers. The most recent purchase was reported by Sanjay Chowbey (President and CEO) on Sep 10, 2026. Grants, option exercises, and tax-withholding transactions are excluded from these counts.

The box applies to Form 4s filed from April 1, 2023; older filings, and boxes we could not read, carry no tag. What the 10b5-1 box means.
