Insider Trades
Buys, sells and planned sales by company insiders.
3 min readStocks and Research
Insiders, like executives and directors, must report trades in their own company's stock. Insider Trades shows them by role, with the shares, price and value.
Kinds of Filings
- Bought and Sold: open-market trades. Buys are often the more telling signal.
- Planned Sales Filed (Form 144): a notice that an insider plans to sell. It's not a completed sale, so it isn't counted as one.
- Grants, Exercises and Gifts: stock awards, option exercises, shares withheld for taxes and gifts. These usually aren't buying or selling decisions.
- Planned sale tag: trades made under a pre-arranged plan (Rule 10b5-1), set up months in advance.
