Michael Simpson

Michael Simpson is a declared insider of Castle A M & Co, with filings sourced from SEC (Form 4). The record holds 36 filings, for trades running from 29 May 2007 to 27 May 2011.

The open-market side counts 3 purchases alongside 21 sales for €3.7M. The totals do not cover 6 filings with an undisclosed amount. A purchase on the market is a deliberate choice to commit personal money, which is why it draws more attention than a grant. The rest of the record consists of 4 share grants and 2 option exercises. In 2011 alone, the filings show no purchases and 1 sale.

Most recently, on 27 May 2011, the filings show an option exercise worth €78k in Castle A M & Co. The latest purchase dates back some time: it was published 7,103 days ago, on 30 May 2007. Between a trade and the moment it shows up on SEC (Form 4), the median delay is 2 days. 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. Source: insider filings from SEC (Form 4). Past trades are no guide to future returns.
