Bargain hunters are wise to pay careful attention to insider buying, because although there are many various reasons for an insider to sell a stock, presumably the only reason they would use their hard-earned dollars to make a purchase, is that they expect to make money. Today we look at two noteworthy recent insider buys.
At Herbalife Ltd. (NYSE:HLF), a filing with the SEC revealed that on Thursday, Chief Operating Officer Richard Goudis purchased 45,516 shares of HLF, for a cost of $43.89 each, for a total investment of $2M.
