Insider Buying Week 6-02-23 Animal Spirits Return

by

Animal spirits returned in force last week. The average insider returned 7.96% and a median return of 6.61%. The S&P 500 scorched 3.97%. The safe money crowd collecting their guaranteed 4%-5% is near the half-year point. They’ve earned a little less than their guaranteed 2%. That’s 2% for the year to date when the market just turned in twice that for a week. Fear of missing out, FOMO, is a dangerous thing.  One way to avoid that investment mistake is to pay attention to what insiders are doing. Normally they don’t chase their stocks in a FOMO moment.

by

Insiders continue to buy regional and community banks.

All bear markets in the last 20 … Read more

Insider Buying Week 7-29-22

Curious how well insiders are doing with their buys? Scroll through the significant buys of the last year. It’s nice being right. It’s better to make money at it. We did both last week. Over the last two weeks, I’ve mentioned the market seemed to be discounting bad news as many stocks stopped going down on lackluster earnings. Well, last week, it broke out into a full bull on rampage. The S&P 500 rose 4.08% on the week, and on Wednesday, when the Fed announced a 3/4/% interest rate hike, the NASDAQ  spiked up 4.1%, its biggest move since 2020. … Read more
