Insider sale of modest size; traders may note but not act aggressively.
What to watch
The director still holds over 3,000 shares, indicating continued belief in the company.
Background

Ticker impact
Director Stefan A. Dyckerhoff sold 8,994 shares of Astera Labs for $2.47M via a 10b5‑1 plan, reducing his holding to 3,309 shares.
