Inside Trading December Report

Author's Avatar
Dec 09, 2008
Every day I pull a list of the insider traders then I shorten the list to be only buys done by roles that have a proven track record (see my previous post for a little on this). Finally I run an evaluation of the companies based on some of the ratios that Graham used to find companies that are cheap (See my earlier series on this).


This is just the start for me though after a company reaches this level it is worthy enough for me to look at it further not necessarily.
