On 4 April 2012 came the latest disclosure, a share grant for €398k in ATP Oil & Gas Corp. The latest purchase dates back some time: it was published 5,455 days ago, on 16 November 2011. Filings reach the SEC (Form 4) feed a median of 2 days after the trade. Section 16 rules allow two business days to file each Form 4. Selling is not necessarily a view on the stock: liquidity needs and diversification are common motives. These figures are compiled from regulatory filings published by SEC (Form 4). They describe what insiders did and are not a recommendation.
