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 Monday, AH Belo Corp (AHC)'s Director, James M. Moroney III, made a $1.89M buy of AHC, purchasing 378,010 shares at a cost of $5.00 a piece.

AH Belo Corp is trading up about 1% on the day Wednesday.
And at Sage Therapeutics (NASDAQ:SAGE), there was insider buying on Monday, by Chief Scientific Officer Albert Robichaud who bought 25,000 shares for a cost of $64.16 each, for a trade totaling $1.60M.
