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 OneMain Holdings, a filing with the SEC revealed that on Monday, CEO Douglas H. Shulman bought 2,150 shares of OMF, at a cost of $41.69 each, for a total investment of $89,642. Bargain hunters are able to bag OMF even cheaper than Shulman did, with the stock changing hands as low as $37.70 in trading on Tuesday -- that's 9.6% under Shulman's purchase price. OneMain Holdings is trading off about 0.9% on the day Tuesday. Before this latest buy, Shulman bought OMF at 7 other times during the past twelve months, for a total investment of $910,780 at an average of $52.57 per share.
