By Travis Hoium – Mar 5, 2026 at 7:15AM ESTKey PointsNoto acquired 56,000 shares of SoFi stock this week for $1 million. The CEO now directly holds over 11.6 million shares directly.Noto's last major buy was when the stock traded in single-digits, so will the jump be similar this time? SoFi Technologies (SOFI +0.48%) CEO Anthony Noto made headlines this week by purchasing $1 million worth of shares on the open market. While a million-dollar buy typically signals strong insider confidence, this acquisition represents just a 0.5% increase to his existing $200 million+ stake. With the stock down this year despite record Q4 2025 earnings, the move appears to be an opportunistic move. However, for investors watching the current $18 price point, Noto's willingness to put personal capital at risk is notable. *Stock prices used were end-of-day prices of March 2, 2026.
