Robert C. Pearson discloses dealings in 4 companies, chiefly Simtek Corp, Laserscope and MFC Development Corp. The record holds 33 filings, for trades running from 30 December 2005 to 15 September 2008.

On the open market, the record shows 1 purchase and 4 sales worth €14.6M. The amount is not disclosed for 2 filings. Open-market purchases are the filings investors watch most closely, because the insider pays for the shares out of pocket. Outside the open market, there are 16 share grants. 2008 to date brings 1 purchase and 1 sale.

On 16 September 2008 came the latest disclosure, a transaction for €2,134 in Simtek Corp. The last purchase on record was published on 22 May 2008, which is 6,729 days ago. The median gap between a trade and its publication by SEC (Form 4) is 2 days. US insiders must file a Form 4 within two business days of a trade. 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.
