A. Clinton Allen

A. Clinton Allen is a declared insider at 5 companies; the most frequent names are LKQ Corp, Collectors Universe Inc and Azenta, Inc. We count 205 filings; the first trade dates from 23 March 2006 and the latest from 13 November 2020.

On the open market, the record shows 11 purchases worth €695k and 32 sales worth €11.7M. The net balance comes to €11.0M on the selling side. Unlike grants, an open-market purchase is paid for by the insider, at the market price. Outside the open market, there are 48 share grants and 20 option exercises. So far in 2020, the count stands at 1 purchase and 1 sale.

A typical purchase (the median) is worth €63k. Clusters matter here: 2 out of 4 purchases overlapped with buying by a colleague within 30 days. A cluster is several different insiders buying the same stock within a short window, a pattern studied more closely than a single purchase. For 5 purchases whose 90-day window has closed, the share price was higher on day 90 than the day after publication in 100% of cases, with a median move of +22.5%. Past outcomes like these are no guarantee of what comes next.

The newest entry dates from 13 November 2020: an open-market purchase of €6,761, in Psychemedics Corp. The median gap between a trade and its publication by SEC (Form 4) is 2 days. For comparison, the SEC allows two business days to file a Form 4. Selling is not necessarily a view on the stock: liquidity needs and diversification are common motives. This summary is built from SEC (Form 4) disclosures alone and does not predict where the share price will go.
