So, when we came across multimillion dollar buy filings at the firm recently, we took note. On June 28, five insiders including the CEO spent $19-million buying shares in the public market. Insiders paid $12 on average for 1,583,000 shares. It is usually a positive signal when multiple insiders buy significant amounts of shares after a stock has been rallying strongly.
