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 cash to make a purchase, is that they expect to make money. Today we look at two noteworthy recent insider buys.
On Thursday, Bain Capital Specialty Finance (NYSE:BCSF)'s CEO, Michael A. Ewald, made a $500,550 purchase of BCSF, buying 27,483 shares at a cost of $18.21 each.
