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 dollars to make a purchase, is that they expect to make money. Today we look at two noteworthy recent insider buys.
On Tuesday, Leslie's Chief Executive Officer, Michael R. Egeck, made a $2M buy of LESL, purchasing 101,700 shares at a cost of $19.66 a piece.

This buy marks the first one filed by Egeck in the past twelve months.
And also on Tuesday, Director David W. Dorman bought $1.00M worth of PayPal Holdings, buying 8,400 shares at a cost of $119.33 each.
