Worth a closer look

  • Open-market purchase with their own money (Form 4 code P), not a grant or option exercise.
  • Raised their own holding by 36%.

Reasons for caution

  • Bought by a 10% owner or investment firm, whose reasons often differ from an executive's.
  • Held indirectly (a trust, fund or family entity), so the economic owner isn't only the named insider.
  • Similar past buys beat the S&P 500 only 44% of the time (339 cases); the typical one trailed it by 2.6%.
