Quanta CEO dumps $120M at all-time high after 150% run

Quanta Services' CEO sold $120.2M this week. Discretionary. Not a 10b5-1 plan, not a scheduled trim. He unloaded 90.4% of his position while PWR sat three dollars below its 52-week high. The stock has climbed 149% over the past year.

He held through the entire run and picked the peak to exit almost everything. Here's the context that sharpens the picture: Quanta is an infrastructure contractor, and the sector is riding a wave of federal spending on grid modernization and renewable buildouts. The Motley Fool called energy stocks "smart buys" the same week the CEO walked away from nine-tenths of his stake. He's been inside this business for decades. He knows what the pipeline looks like beyond the headlines. He sold anyway.

The telecommunications REIT is trading near the bottom third of its 52-week range at $180, making this a strategic time to lock in financing terms.
