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. You hear a lot about what a great year the market is having but the buyers of these stocks would vehemently disagree.  There are 61 buys we are monitoring and 55 of them are in negative territory for the year. Insiders are the consummate value buyer, preferring to invest in their own company’s stock when it is on sale.  Sometimes that might be taking a bullet for the team or trying to paint the tape.  But when they buy in size with their own money, it’s likely they … Read more

Insider Buying Week 11-07-25 the Printing Press seems more like a Weighing Machine

Last week was a bit rough. The S&P 500 lost 1.63% and the Nasdaq tumbled 2.94%. It felt a bit like the magic was over.  Warren Buffett said the stock market was a weighing machine but in recent months it seemed more like a printing press. That changed last week. It’s hardly a surprise, though. The equal weighted index has been underperforming since August. The average stock chart looks like crap.   Is it a breather or something more malign? Insiders are the classic dip buyer.  Will they bite now that the earnings season blackout is lifting? Name: Sameh Fahmy Position: DirectorTransaction … Read more

Insider Buying Week 04-11-25 Every Bear Market Ends with a Tsunami of Insider Buying

What a great time to be an insider. Every bear market since 2001 has only ended with a plethora, a tsunami of insider buying. Nothing like that has yet happened. Pay close attention to what Insiders are doing with their own money. Pay NO attention to buy-back announcements unless they are backed with real actions.  Many buy-backs are more aspirational than real.

Insider Buying Week 7-1-22 Few Buys but Some Important Ones

Curious how well insiders are doing with their buys? Scroll through the significant buys of the last year. I thought we had put in some lows in some of the beaten-down tech names but I’m not sure about that after last week’s punishing finish.  Talk about a schizophrenic market. The bond market had a convincing rally with utilities leading the pack as the vibe has gone from a hot economy to one that may already be in recession according to chief market strategist from Charles Schwab, Liz Ann Sonders.   There were few insider trades to add to market confidence.  We’re … Read more
