The "insider transactions" guy on Power Lunch was Craig Columbus of Disclosure, Inc. He made a general statement that one will never really see any insider buying at high tech growth companies because their employees are frequently compensated with options - so it doesn't make sense for them to go out into the open market to buy company stock.
