James M. Follo

James M. Follo has filed trades across 3 companies (mainly through SEC (Form 4)), most often in NEW York Times Co, HSN, Inc. and Martha Stewart Living Omnimedia Inc. In total, 58 filings cover trades dated from 7 March 2006 to 21 February 2018.

Market trades split into 3 purchases (€186k) and 5 sales (€6.4M). Taken together, the sales exceed the purchases by €6.3M. A purchase on the market is a deliberate choice to commit personal money, which is why it draws more attention than a grant. Other entries cover 32 share grants and 14 option exercises. Since January 2018: no purchases and 1 sale on the market.

Half of the purchases are above €28k and half below. After 3 purchases with a full 90-day history, the hit rate stands at 0% and the median 90-day move at -1.7%. This is a record of the past, not a forecast.

On 23 February 2018 came the latest disclosure, a share grant for €346k in NEW York Times Co. The most recent open-market purchase was published on 5 February 2007, 7,201 days ago. Typically, a trade is published a median of 2 days after it takes place. 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.
