(Natural News)—On July 15, just a few days before the Microsoft-CrowdStrike global tech outage caused by a corrupted anti-virus update (or so we are told), CrowdStrike Chief Security Officer Shawn Henry sold 4,000 shares of CrowdStrike Holdings Inc (NASDAQ: CRWD), a recent SEC filing shows.
After the sale, Henry now owns 183,091 shares of the company, which specializes in cloud-delivered protection of endpoints, cloud workloads, identity and data, according to Yahoo! Finance. CrowdStrike exists to prevent the types of breaches that occurred over the weekend with the crippling of global tech platforms.
Over the past year, Henry unloaded 85,986 shares of CrowdStrike at various intervals. During the same time period, Henry did not make a single purchase of CrowdStrike shares.
Henry is not the only person at CrowdStrike who followed this same MO. A total of 48 insiders at CrowdStrike sold shares over the past year. Not a single one of them made any share purchases during the same time period.

Are CrowdStrike insiders doing insider trading?
The day of Henry’s share sale, the price of a CrowdStrike share was $371.32, which gives the company a market cap of $89.81 billion. The company’s price-to-earnings ratio is an astounding 696.32, which is significantly higher than the industry median of 27.16.
CrowdStrike stock’s GF value is estimated at around $346.82, leading to a price-to-GF-Value ratio of 1.07. In layman’s terms, the stock is considered by the markets to be Fairly Valued.
Those who hold CrowdStrike shares may want to take note of these routine stock sales from Henry and other insiders who are slowly offloading their shares and not buying any more of them. What does this mean for the future of CRWD’s stock price?
After the global outage, CRWD’s price took a big dip of around 11 percent, prompting infamous ARK Invest CEO Cathie Wood to swoop up $12 million in shares.
The CrowdStrike update “glitch” affected tens of millions of Microsoft Windows users, including at airports, hospitals, banks and retailers. The effects of the outage were still being felt on June 22, the start of the following week.
Wood’s ARK Next Generation Internet ETF currently holds $1.45 billion in assets with CRWD now making up two percent of the fund. The ARK Fintech Innovation ETF purchased CRWD as well, which now makes up 1.3 percent of its $893.5 million portfolio.
Though Wood’s two ETF have declined substantially since their February 2021 peaks, Wood is reportedly buying up stocks she believes in with the hope that they will eventually bounce back, save for a market crash.
Wall Street ended up downgrading CRWD’s rating while slashing price targets, which drove the stock’s price down another 12 percent.
Microsoft, meanwhile, released a recovery tool to help IT admins repair Windows machines that were impacted by the update failure.
According to The Verge, the tool creates a bootable USB drive that IT admins can use to quickly recover machines that were damaged and lost files necessary for their operation.
Millions of Microsoft customers experienced the dreaded “Blue Screen of Death” errors preventing their machines from booting up properly. Rebooting damaged PCs multiple times will cause most of them to automatically receive the necessary update, but some machines can only be fixed, reports indicate, by manually booting them into Safe Mode and deleting the corrupted CrowdStrike update file.

Why One Survival Food Company Shines Above the Rest
Let’s be real. “Prepper Food” or “Survival Food” is generally awful. The vast majority of companies that push their cans, bags, or buckets desperately hope that their customers never try them and stick them in the closet or pantry instead. Why? Because if the first time they try them is after the crap hits the fan, they’ll be too shaken to call and complain about the quality.
It’s true. Most long-term storage food is made with the cheapest possible ingredients with limited taste and even less nutritional value. This is why they tout calories so much. Sure, they provide calories but does anyone really want to go into the apocalypse with food their family can’t stand?
This is what prompted the Llewellyns to launch Heaven’s Harvest. They bought survival food from multiple companies and determined they couldn’t imagine being stuck in an extended emergency with such low-quality food. They quickly discovered that freeze drying food for long-term storage doesn’t have to mean sacrificing flavor, consistency, or nutrition.
Their ingredients are all-American. In fact, they’re locally sourced and all-natural! This allows their products to be the highest quality on the market, so good that their customers often break open a bag in a pinch to eat because they want to, not just because they have to due to an emergency.
At Heaven’s Harvest, their only focus is amazing food. They don’t sell bugout bags, solar chargers, or multitools. They have one mission – feeding Americans in times of crisis.
What they DO offer is the ability for people to thrive in times of greatest need. On top of long-term storage food, they offer seeds to help Americans for the truly long-term. They want them to grow their own food if possible which is why they offer only Heirloom, Non-GMO, Non-Hybrid, Open-Pollinated seeds so their customers can build permanent food security on their own property.
