Context

Encompass Health CEO Tarr Mark J sold about 173,148 shares in open-market transactions totaling $21.7M, per a new Form 4 filing.

Expected impact

The filing discloses transaction size, price range, and that it was not under a pre-arranged 10b5-1 plan, but it provides no stated reason or company performance linkage.

Market effects
