A purchase on the market is a deliberate choice to commit personal money, which is why it draws more attention than a grant. Besides market trades, the filings include 8 share grants and 45 option exercises. Since January 2011: no purchases and 4 sales on the market.

Half of the purchases are above €104k and half below.

On 16 February 2011 came the latest disclosure, a transaction for €6.0M in Sonic Solutions/CA/. The last insider purchase was made public on 9 December 2008, 6,528 days ago. Typically, a trade is published a median of 2 days after it takes place. For comparison, the SEC allows two business days to file a 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.
