Every open-market trade on record is a purchase: 1 purchase worth €40k, and no sale. Open-market purchases are the filings investors watch most closely, because the insider pays for the shares out of pocket. Besides market trades, the filings include 3 share grants. In 2007 alone, the filings show 1 purchase and no sales.

The newest entry dates from 23 August 2007: an open-market purchase of €40k, in New England Bancshares, Inc. Between a trade and the moment it shows up on SEC (Form 4), the median delay is 4 days. The legal deadline for a Form 4 is two business days after the transaction. These figures are compiled from regulatory filings published by SEC (Form 4). They describe what insiders did and are not a recommendation.
