Both buying and selling appear: 1 purchase worth €10k, against 73 sales worth €8.6M. On balance, insiders were net sellers of €8.6M. 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 15 share grants and 47 option exercises. So far in 2012, the count stands at no purchases and 1 sale.

The latest filing, published on 21 August 2012, reports an option exercise of €27k in Cypress Semiconductor Corp /DE/. The last insider purchase was made public on 6 July 2006, 7,430 days ago. Between a trade and the moment it shows up on SEC (Form 4), the median delay is 3 days. 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. These figures are compiled from regulatory filings published by SEC (Form 4). They describe what insiders did and are not a recommendation.
