Some of the losses seen by insiders who purchased €73.2k worth of Alisa Pankki Oyj (HEL:ALISA) shares over the past year were recovered after the stock increased by 17% over the past week. The purchase, however, has proven to be a pricey bet, with losses currently totalling €15k.
Although we don't think shareholders should simply follow insider transactions, logic dictates you should pay some attention to whether insiders are buying or selling shares.
Alisa Pankki Oyj Insider Transactions Over The Last Year
In the last twelve months, the biggest single purchase by an insider was when insider Tero Weckroth bought €73k worth of shares at a price of €0.20 per share. That means that even when the share price was higher than €0.16 (the recent price), an insider wanted to purchase shares. It's very possible they regret the purchase, but it's more likely they are bullish about the company. In our view, the price an insider pays for shares is very important. It is encouraging to see an insider paid above the current price for shares, as it suggests they saw value, even at higher levels. Tero Weckroth was the only individual insider to buy during the last year.
