Deciphering The Signals

Looking at insider trades can give investors potential insights into a company’s future. An insider buying stock suggests they believe the stock will rise, indicating potential growth or undervaluation. However, it’s crucial to understand that insider trading is just one piece of the puzzle. Investors should always look at the bigger picture, including market conditions, company performance, industry health, and economic indicators, before making investment decisions.

By spotlighting significant insider trades, it enables investors to potentially align their strategies with those who have the deepest insights into their companies — the corporate insiders.
