As the saying goes, there are many possible reasons for an insider to sell a stock, but only one reason to buy -- they expect to make money. So let's look at two noteworthy recent insider buys.
On Tuesday, Leapfrog Enterprises (LF)'s Director, Owen Randall Rissman, made a $227,475 purchase of LF, buying 25,000 shares at a cost of $9.10 each.

Before this latest buy, Rissman made one other buy in the past year, purchasing $411,202 shares for a cost of $8.22 each.
