Insiders including Meta Platforms Inc.’s Mark Zuckerberg, Oracle Corp.’s Safra Catz and JPMorgan Chase & Co.’s Jamie Dimon cashed out shares worth billions of dollars before President Donald Trump’s tariff announcements roiled markets.

Zuckerberg sold 1.1 million shares worth $733 million in the first quarter through his Chan Zuckerberg Initiative and its related foundation, according to an analysis by the Washington Service, which tracks insider buying and selling. All of the sales were in January and February when Meta’s stock was still trading above $600, hitting a peak of more than $736 on Valentine’s Day. The social-media company’s share price has since slid by 32% amid the broader market selloff.
