Insider Buying Week 05-16-25 The Best Insider Buy/Sell Ratio in a Year

by

  The busiest week we’ve seen in some time.  In fact, it’s so busy that I would venture to say that a short-term bottom is in and there is a more room to the upside.  It’s basically all in now and I don’t often make a call like that. Of course, we won’t know that for months, but this is the most bullish Insider Buy/Sell Ratio in a year.  At least it gives us a lot to ponder. There are a lot of compelling insider buys this week.  As usual insiders are value buyers, preferring to buy their stocks nearer … Read more

Insider Buying 03-07-25 Chaos-2.0 Treasure Hunt Continues

by

CHAOS 2.0 unfolds as expected with a sharp drop in interest rates as market participants pivot from worrying about inflation to crumbling public sentiment and the likelihood of rising unemployment numbers.  February employment numbers failed to assuage the sense that the U.S. economy is about to rollover as an inconsistent implementation of tariffs, pall-knell like approach to trimming Government fat, and a clear failure to lead the electorate has created a witch’s pot of discontent.  Stocks are predictably down, the only question being is this a trend or a bottom. The jury is still out on that. As for me, … Read more

Insider Buying Week 08-16-24 Party On!

by

The market just posted its best week of the year as investors seemed to grasp that the Federal Reserve’s known rate cuts trumped the unknowns from either Presidential candidate, plus whatever Iran had in mind as payback would not be sufficient to risk the devastation wrought by an Israeli strike bolstered by the U.S. Defense Department. Party on! We have also tracked a noticeable pickup in insider buying, mostly in obscure names but something is better than nothing. This weeks highlights include: Name: Thomas C ERB Position: Director Transaction Date: 2024-08-13 Shares Bought: 2,000 Average Price Paid: $112.94 Cost: $225,880 … Read more

‘s Really Quite Simple Buy Guns and Gas-Insider Buying Week 11-5-22

by

A miserable week, down 3.46% for the bulls ended on a positive note on Friday. The narrative that the bottom was in now seems shaky as stalwarts AMZN, APPLE, MICROSOFT, ALPHABET, and  FACEBOOk all plumb new lows. One thing for certain, the hurdle rate for stocks and all things investment-related is much higher. The 10 Year Treasury yield of nearly 4.5% and the Prime rate of 7% are the new realities.
