Fundamental analysis 13?
Insider trading? Ever worried about what insiders know, and you are left on the outside? SEC will punish the insider trading if they make money. A severe fine and may be even prison(Boesky). You can find out but usually too late, because the filing allow some time to pass.

When insiders bought usually market makers pull back. Fundamentally to take out the weak hands,if good news come, they can move the price up. Technically, have to buy back the large number of shares. But most often the market makers will approach the insiders to see if they will buy some stock. Just good customers.
Do insiders really know? Not at the time they buy. Otherwise, they will be answering to SEC. Most likely, they knew something might look good, but then the company can not execute. This happens so often, that I tend to write off the wrong timing of the insiders.
Also, insiders do not know the value of the quicky news that might move the price up. Many news has so little effect on the balance sheet that, no price movements could be anticipated.
However, if market makers move the price up and the public caught on by the news, then you have an advantage. |
