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 Wednesday, Microsoft's Director, Emma N. Walmsley, made a $1.02M buy of MSFT, purchasing 4,300 shares at a cost of $236.80 each.

And at Kinsale Capital Group, there was insider buying on Wednesday, by Director Steven J. Bensinger who bought 3,500 shares at a cost of $173.42 each, for a total investment of $606,983.
