On the open market, the record shows 2 purchases worth €9,461 and 5 sales worth €251k. Sales outweigh purchases by €241k.

Since January 2010: no purchases and 5 sales on the market.

On 29 December 2010 came the latest disclosure, an option exercise for €45k in Gerber Scientific Inc. The latest purchase dates back some time: it was published 6,598 days ago, on 16 October 2008. Filings reach the SEC (Form 4) feed a median of 2 days after the trade. The legal deadline for a Form 4 is two business days after the transaction. 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.
