PM Trading Below Director's Recent Buy Price

Now Playing: One Reason For Insiders to Buy


If the video does not load after a few moments, Upgrade to the Latest Flash Player.

There's an old saying on Wall Street about insider buying: there are many possible reasons to sell a stock, but only one reason to buy. Back on November 1, Philip Morris International Inc's Director, Sergio Marchionne, invested $88,274.00 into 1,000 shares of PM, for a cost per share of $88.27. Bargain hunters tend to pay particular attention to insider buys like this one, because presumably the only reason an insider would take their hard-earned cash and use it to buy stock of their company in the open market, is that they expect to make money.

In trading on Thursday, bargain hunters could buy shares of Philip Morris International Inc (NYSE:PM) and achieve a cost basis 2.6% cheaper than Marchionne, with shares changing hands as low as $86.01 per share. Philip Morris International Inc shares are currently trading up about 0.5% on the day. The chart below shows the one year performance of PM shares, versus its 200 day moving average:

Looking at the chart above, PM's low point in its 52 week range is $69.12 per share, with $94.13 as the 52 week high point — that compares with a last trade of $86.77. By comparison, below is a table showing the prices at which insider buying was recorded over the last six months:

Purchased Insider Title Shares Price/Share Value
07/24/2012 Sergio Marchionne Director 1,000 $87.88 $87,880.00
08/24/2012 Sergio Marchionne Director 1,000 $88.50 $88,500.00
11/01/2012 Sergio Marchionne Director 1,000 $88.27 $88,274.00

According to the ETF Finder at ETF Channel, PM makes up 10.92% of the Consumer Staples Select Sector SPDR Fund ETF (AMEX:XLP) which is trading lower by about 0.1% on the day Thursday.
