Abraham D. Sofaer

Abraham D. Sofaer is a declared insider at 3 companies; the most frequent names are Gen Probe Inc, Rambus Inc and Neurobiological Technologies Inc /CA/. The record holds 78 filings, for trades running from 30 June 2005 to 31 December 2012.

Both buying and selling appear: 7 purchases worth €158k, against 1 sale worth €661k. The net balance comes to €503k on the selling side. Buying on the open market means paying the going price with one's own funds, a different act from receiving shares as pay. Besides market trades, the filings include 59 share grants and 5 option exercises. Since January 2012: 1 purchase and no sales on the market.

A typical purchase (the median) is worth €6,695. Looking at 6 purchases old enough to measure, the stock rose over the following 90 days in 17% of cases; the median change was -9.5%. This is a record of the past, not a forecast.

On 31 December 2012 came the latest disclosure, a share grant in Rambus Inc. The latest purchase dates back some time: it was published 5,281 days ago, on 9 May 2012. 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. This summary is built from SEC (Form 4) disclosures alone and does not predict where the share price will go.
