John Hancock Preferred Income Fund II: what insiders have been doing
John Hancock Preferred Income Fund II is a Banks company. Its directors and officers file their transactions with SEC (Form 4). In the past year (22 October 2025 to 22 October 2026), 1 filing came from 1 insider.
The flow runs one way only: 1 insider bought (1 purchase totalling €8,434) and nobody sold on the market. Unlike grants, an open-market purchase is paid for by the insider, at the market price. Biggest ticket of the year: €8,434, bought by Phelan Kenneth J and made public on 27 January 2026. Those buying include 1 senior executive.
The clock since the last published purchase (27 January 2026) now reads 270 days.
Across the 2,023 companies tracked on its exchange, the median is 41 filings; at 1 filing, this issuer sits below that mark. Since 2016, the database holds 15 purchases and 4 sales by insiders of the company.
