Abstract:

In an effort to determine whether or not certain insider transactions are indeed a harbinger of future stock price performance, Thomson Financial analyzed forty public companies between the years of 2004 and 2006. An analysis was done to try to determine if insiders at tightly held companies, where management owns a large percentage of stock, were a better indicator of stock price performance than insiders at companies that have a comparatively low percentage of ownership. Several extrapolations of the data presented are made, as are specific recommendations for analyzing insider data. Lastly, tips and takeaways for both the IRO and the individual investor are included.
