Insider Buying Week 11-14-25 the Busiest Week of the Year

This was the busiest week we’ve seen this year for insider buying.

This holiday week is expected to be quiet, yet there’s an underlying sense of caution: even a brief lapse in attention could prove risky, whether markets surge upward or tumble downward.
