Foolish Take
Herald Investment Management's decision to sell $17.2 million worth of CyberArk Software stock is a significant development that investors should note -- here's why.
Shares of CyberArk have been on a roll. The company's stock has advanced by an impressive 51% year-to-date. However, its three-year performance is even more spectacular.
Over the last three years, CyberArk has generated a total return of 250%, equating to an eye-popping compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 51.7%. By contrast, the S&P 500 is up 86% over the last three years, with a CAGR of 23%.
The stock's excellent performance makes the sudden sale by Herald all the more noteworthy. Herald not only reduced its holdings in CyberArk; it closed its entire stake. Such a move often indicates a shift in sentiment, as opposed to run-of-the-mill profit taking.
In summary, a major institutional investor has changed course on CyberArk -- a stock that has outperformed the S&P 500 for several years. And while this transaction alone is not a reason to sell the stock, it is worthy of notice.
