Made public 64 days after the earliest trade

OPM Director Scott Kupor cleared out five tech positions in a single day on August 21, with the Airbnb and Samsara stakes each worth as much as $5 million. The sales look like ethics-driven divestiture from his venture background, and they only became public 64 days after he filed.

Scott Kupor, Director of the Office of Personnel Management, sold positions in five technology companies on August 21, 2026, in what the filing shows as a broad single-day liquidation of his tech holdings. The two largest sales, Airbnb Class A shares and Samsara Class A shares, each fell in the $1 million to $5 million range, making them the most consequential moves in the batch.

Okta and Pinterest each came in at $100K to $250K, while a stake in Figma common stock, which is not publicly traded, was sold in the $15K to $50K range. Together the five transactions span consumer internet, enterprise security, and IoT software, sectors Kupor encountered regularly through his prior venture capital work.

Sales of this kind, concentrated in a single day across multiple unrelated companies, are a pattern typically associated with ethics-mandated divestiture rather than an ordinary portfolio decision. Kupor's background in venture investing means he entered government holding a portfolio common for someone in that world but problematic for someone overseeing federal workforce and technology policy.

The disclosure arrived 64 days after Kupor filed it on August 24, 2026, meaning the public learned of the trades more than two months after they occurred. That lag is within the window permitted under current disclosure rules, but it illustrates how much time can pass between when a senior executive branch official acts on their portfolio and when outside observers can see it.

Mad Money w/ Jim Cramer 9/29/26

Cramer says the 30-year Treasury yield is the highest in 24 years, with over 40% of S&P 500 names in a bear market
Public backlash against AI and data centers is the new narrative risk that could make October ugly
Goldman Sachs called the most beaten-down of a caller's bank ideas alongside Capital One and BNY Mellon

Cramer's message: public perception is now the AI trade's problem, and he thinks that plus long-end yields sets up a rough October. He still wants Goldman Sachs on weakness, calling it the most beaten-down of the bank names raised by a caller.

Active ETF managers are quietly crowding into the identity layer AI agents depend on, and Bloomberg's Balchunas says Okta tops his new flow tracker at $142 million in net buying.
