Larry Ellison Cancels Plan to Sell $7.5 Billion in Oracle Stock
Oracle Executive Chairman Larry Ellison has canceled his plan to sell up to 50 million shares of Oracle stock, valued at about $7.5 billion, with no shares sold under the trading plan adopted in June. Ellison, who controls over 38% of Oracle, made this decision amid a 23% stock decline this year due to investor concerns over high capital expenditures and debt. Oracle recently reported strong quarterly results and rising restructuring costs, including job cuts, as it invests in AI-driven growth and cloud infrastructure.
