How to Read Insider Trades
What is this?
When company executives buy or sell their own stock, they must report it to the SEC within 2 days. These public filings reveal what the people who know the company best are doing with their own money.
Why does it matter?
Insiders can sell for many reasons (taxes, diversification, expenses), but they generally only buy for one: they think the stock is going up. That's why insider purchases are more predictive than sales.
What makes a trade "strong"?
We score trades on 15+ factors: the insider's role (CEO > director), trade size relative to their salary, whether other insiders also bought (clusters), and historical accuracy of the insider.
