Jerry Benjamin

All filings by Jerry Benjamin on record concern Cancervax Corp. In total, 71 filings cover trades dated from 5 May 2006 to 15 September 2008.

In open-market terms, that means 7 purchases worth €725k on one side and 63 sales worth €3.6M on the other. Taken together, the sales exceed the purchases by €2.9M. A purchase on the market is a deliberate choice to commit personal money, which is why it draws more attention than a grant. In 2008 alone, the filings show no purchases and 63 sales.

Half of the purchases are above €50k and half below.

The latest filing, published on 16 September 2008, reports an open-market sale of €191k in Cancervax Corp. The most recent open-market purchase was published on 26 June 2007, 7,075 days ago. The median gap between a trade and its publication by SEC (Form 4) is 4 days. Section 16 rules allow two business days to file each Form 4. A sale on its own says little: insiders also sell to pay tax, fund a purchase or diversify. Source: insider filings from SEC (Form 4). Past trades are no guide to future returns.
