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.
At Legacy Housing, a filing with the SEC revealed that on Thursday, Director Mark E. Bennett purchased 34,773 shares of LEGH, for a cost of $12.01 each, for a total investment of $417,586.
