Smart Money Convergence
VZ does not currently show a 13F-and-insider convergence signal — its insider confidence score is 0/100, below the threshold this product uses to flag combined buying pressure.
13F data as of 2026-09-30 quarterly filings. Note: many large institutions file close to the 45-day post-quarter deadline, so early-quarter flow figures can shift substantially as more filings arrive.

For 2028, Schulman is guaranteed at least $25 million in long-term incentive awards, to be granted in early 2027 alongside other top executives, though the vesting conditions are not fully described in this filing. Compensation for years after 2028 will be set later by the board.
