Both buying and selling appear: 2 purchases worth €450k, against 17 sales worth €876k. Taken together, the sales exceed the purchases by €425k. 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 59 share grants and 17 option exercises.

The newest entry dates from 31 January 2018: a share grant, in Noble Corp plc. The latest purchase dates back some time: it was published 4,535 days ago, on 9 June 2014. Typically, a trade is published a median of 2 days after it takes place. 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. Source: insider filings from SEC (Form 4). Past trades are no guide to future returns.
