(Welcome to edition thirty eight of Insider Weekends. Insider buying increased last week with insiders purchasing $36.86 million of their stock when compared to $33.13 million in the week prior. Selling on the other hand dropped with insiders selling $895.43 million worth of stock when compared to $2.14 billion in the week prior.
Sell/Buy Ratio:
The insider Sell/Buy ratio is calculated by dividing the total insider sales in a given week by total insider buying in that week. The adjusted ratio for last week dropped sharply to 24.29. In other words, insiders sold more than 24 times as much stock as they purchased. The Sell/Buy ratio this week compares favorably with the week prior when the ratio stood at 64.53. We are calculating an adjusted ratio by removing transactions by funds and companies and trying as best as possible only to retain information about insiders and 10% owners who are not funds or companies.
