So I said I'd be back to blogging the insiders right after the New Year but I clearly lied. Sorry for any of my readers that were counting on me. The fact of the matter is that the amount of forms that poured through from December 31st overwhelmed me. There was definitely a lot of behind the scenes business going on the last day of 2015 & they finally all pushed through yesterday. The forms that you'll see on my list tonight are from January 4, 2016 to current (all with filing dates from today - January 7, 2016). I hope that everyone was able to hedge some of their investments or buy some securities during this turbulent start to 2016. TVIX has been my saviour & I'm still holding. In my opinion, tomorrow is going to be much of the same as today. It's going to take a hot minute to get back to green. That being said, I'm still awaiting my clearance shares of Disney (DIS) that I've been patiently awaiting to average out my $105 shares. Other than that, I'm really not in a lot of trades & will enter all trades I make with extreme caution & a plan. That being said, here are the insiders that I saw today:
Form 3's: ORRF (2), TGI, HBP, TRMK, BPOP, LABL, ZDPY (4), SHW, LXU, BIOA, LEG, UPS, HF, EPAM, AM, AR, HEAR, EPD, CCC, BBT, RCAP, TMO, KOP, RPT, COKE, H (10), FLML, OFS, PH, WG (2), MGI (3), FFKT, ARDX, NCMI, SWAY (8), MOBL, WLH & AROC

13G's: ENCR (-), SFUN (+), EHIC (+), NOAH (+), MR (-), MCUR (-) (2), SINA (+), AMRC (-), RESN (-) (3), CSWC (-), AFSI (-), WLKP, EVHC, UCTT (-), IVZ (-), LM (-), CAC (+), CALM (-), CVU, BTG (+), CSS (-), BKE (-), BWLIA, BTN (+), AVNW (+), AIT (-), BRX (-), AGX (-), ASYS (-), ETM (+), ATLO (+), ALG (-), AVX (-), LPSN, EQT & MR (-)

Form 4's (Insider Acquirements for $0): DE, AMC, XOM, ESOA, DRQ, RDNT, MERC (7), LXU, OLP (22), MDBX, ROCK (5), BKEP, CLD (6), TLN (3), MCF (3), NEWR (3), PSTI (8), MDA, TNET, CPB (8), EPD, SGMS, PARR, CARB, SNCR (6), KRC (6), LNKD, DFT (3), STAA, CTO, OVAS, NCMI, MMI (2), PAGP, JMI (7), ARR (10), DMD, AHS (3), SN (3), AEGN & MB
Form 4's (Insider Sales): ANDE (13), THFF (2), ECOM, SAM, DCI, CHH, NBTB (2), L, CTG, CLNT, AMWD, ZAYO (2), UNF, MERC (7), EPAY, FBP (8), RGR, EW (2), OXY, SEDG, HBI, SCSS, ACN (7), NUBA, FNSR, ADSK, ADI, VRA, DMND, MOH, PARR, PYDS, ICE (2), PEN (2), PGTI, NBL, LRN, EGLT, BSX, EXR (2), VRNS, JAZZ, RSPP, UTHR (2), ALB (2), CAG, SGMS, NRCIB, TESO, EVRI (3), PBIP (2), JASN (7), AMRI, CARB, HALO (2), PNK, KLAC (2), SNCR (2), GES (2), LARK (2), RJET, JNS, SWHC (3), KRC (7), GNCMA, JBLU, TGTX, LNKD, FB, ELLI, CAMP, CPT (6), FES (3), QVCA, LMCA, RLD, MACK, DIOD, MOB, IONS, SPWH, CAKE (6), VEEV, TRUP, MMI (2), VR, AHS (5), XTLY TSO, LBRDA, SN (6), UHLN, CARA, MB (2) & PAHC (2)
Form 4's (Insider Disposals for $0): SYPR, AMC, XOM, ESOA, CHD, RDNT, PZZA, FDX, NEWR (3), SABR (2), BSRR & CRM
Because I don't want anyone to follow what I suggest during this volatile period, I'm just going to give you a short closing here from today. First off, we often see "acquirements for $0" that counter the insider sales of the same ticker. We also see the opposite. Often times, when this is occurring it is due to changes in the Board or in Management (not always but often). But...there are sometimes where we see insiders buying & selling the exact same stocks at the same time, though. I track these but don't typically share it in the blog. This will be the only thing extra I will share with you tonight.
The first I have listed is ANDE where 13 insiders bought & sold the stock. ANDE actually had more selling going on than buying but masked it by having forms on both sides. The next is FBP with more insiders buying, then ACN with more insiders buying, Halo with more insiders buying & finally JNS with more sales than purchases.
All in all, the insider transactions have finally quieted down enough for me to blog so I will have one for you to use in your homework toolkit for the weekend. That's all I have for tonight.

Another Day in the Life - Merry Christmas
I apologize for my absence lately but I've been working out my trades based on stop losses because I've been doing my passion job of teaching skiing. I'm off for the next 4 days but them back on until 2016 so likely will be stagnant until January. I hope you are all surviving the holiday season & the quasi-Santa Rally.
Either way, here's what I've done: skied amazing powder, felt super accomplished improving people's skiing while they have a stellar time, successfully sold out of GLBL on a stop loss at $5.65, baked cookies, cleaned my house, prepped for a Christmas dinner party, sold most of my CBAY between $1.75-1.85, bought SQBG & have already gained over $1/share, getting excited for my ski down torchlight parade tomorrow night (Christmas Eve) with flares, get excited for houseguests, wrapping presents, dealing with watering the tree, etc, etc, etc. Enough about me, here is the the insider trading I gathered after the markets closed today:
Form 3's: AIG (2), HSII, FNB (2), UTG, BKYI, GLV, GLQ, GLO, STI, EGY, AQXP, ENIC, FITB, MPG, GRUB, GLUU & AMRS
13D's: SCRI, SCON, TK, NEO, PBY (2), IRC, ITCC, STKL, NATL, KHI, BOBE, SALT, CNX, EDGE, BONA, MCOX (2), XCO, SWWI, WLFC, NCAP, SYUT & ALJ
13G's: GNMK, SCRI, SUNE, CAFD, TCO, FSL, CWEI, JAGX & GNMK
Form 4's (Insider Buys): SNGX (2), OPK, AME, UEX, MNK, ENBL, MKTY, BVX (3), XCO, MLHR, RIT (2), MNR (2), VSEC (2), SLCT, SPKE, TIPT, NC (3), RELV, UTG (3), LPAD, OKS (2), PRSS, TWER, FREVS, BIOL, BEN, OPOF (2), DIS (3), EVBS, APU, AMID (2), UTGN, TLN, TKOI, QCRH, CPRX, PAGP, HCI, FSNN, RHP, PRKR, SUP, FMI, SHLD, HCAP (2), CLMS (2), TPHS, NEO, ESES, GVC, NSEC, PSEC (2), FELP, CNBKA (2), ASNA, XRM, WPT, SCRI (3), WAIR, JCAP, GTXI, UACL, SCOR (2), DLTH, DCOM (2), BBEP, EVA (3), MUX, CLUB, BOFI, EML, CEQP, LE, SHOS, CPTA, GBT, MOH, BAGR, FFFC, GULTU, CWGL, APU, XRM, ERHE & FSIC
Form 4's (Insider Acquirements for $0): DSCI, BDX, HPY (7), FDEF, SWM, GOOG (2), PRKA, MENT, BIF (2), BKFS, DIHC (7), EGY (2), FOSL, FOGO (2), VEEV (3), SLG, CIFC, IBM (3), DOOR, HTWR (5), AMRS, NEOG, SIVB (7), W (6), BGCP (4) & NPTN
Form 4's (Insider Sales): DSCI (4), XBIT (2), ACOR, SAM (2), SFST, HPY (7), CSCD, DAL, USCR, WY, CRK (2), SLCT, ZAYO, CCL, CUK, KR, RTN, GOOG (2), MSEC, NR (4), LEG, AMSWA, KBR, BIF, RLOG, SFNC (2), PNRA, SHAK (3), MENT, LTC, CIEN (8). VRNS, SHEN, NOW, HAL, GIMO, IRMD, MCBC (5), BV (2), NXTM, RHT, VEEV (3), FXCM (3), HBI, PANW (5), FNRN, EQR (2), CBOE, SLG, SHLD, GRUB, MTSI (2), AET, HCAP, AIZ, PYDS, SABR (2), EGRX, SIX (2), IBM (3), XRM, SFS, PHMD, HA, ACM, RLYP, SMTX, DISH, CVT, HTWR (4), EXA, ALKS, TMK, PMCS, TPLM, CRM, ROKR, TRUP, PSDV (2), AMBA, FB, SP, MTRX, SIVG (7), LNG, CRIS, DHX (2), CNC (2), SWKS, FGEN, ALOG, W (3), AMWD, DLB (2), BGCP (4), DRI (2), NPTN, PAHC, CUDA , SNGX (2), PENC, IGXT, DIS & NEWR
Form 4's (Insider Disposals for $0): OPK, HF, CPLA, AIMC, PDCO, TSO, FCEA, MORN, SRCL, VLO, IDT, TIF, FXCM, SAFM, AFSI, NBL, NEOG, KNX, CNC (2), CUB, CTIC (2), AMWD, CLGX & BGCP (4)
So, I'm a bit out of the loop as I haven't tracked in a hot minute. Either way, let's pay attention to the repeats still. Also, the one's that cross multiple categories along with the one's headed into or out of earnings & the one's with large catalysts. A clear one that sticks out instantly for me is SCRI hitting 3 nice areas (I need to chart tonight but haven't yet) along with PBP which Mr. Icahn increased his stake into.
As for the insider buyer list, nothing really stood out to me monetarily but seeing tickers like CNBKA, CWGL, CLMS, SHLD, TIPT & others on my list definitely make me want to look at their technicals. Some of these have been on my insider buy list for weeks or months. I also want to look into DIS based on it's current pricing & the insider activity. The only CFO's I saw buying today work for: IGXT, FFFC & CPTA.
On the selling side of the Form 4's, I could note that GOOG was the highest monetarily, as expected. The CFO seller list includes the following companies: SFST, ZAYO, HPY, CIEN, FXCM, PANW, LTC, TLN, TKOI, AIZ, IBM, DXCM, BBEP, NSEC, SFS, NEWR, PSDV, W & SABR. Also, the DIS CFO exercised options today. I need to catch back up before I share anymore of my notes than this, though.
Since tomorrow is a short day & most likely a very light insider day, I'll try to give my readers the most thorough list that I can as I do have tomorrow off asides the torchlight ski down. I hope everyone is able to find only profit in these markets. Take care & happy holidays!

The Big Decline & Now it's the Weekend
Today was a very red Friday which possibly indicated an early end to our Santa Rally. My expectations for volatility & gold that I had expected to see on Wednesday decided to happen today instead. All of the stocks that the QQQ follows took big hits today along with DIS on the official Star Wars release. Sure we often come to expect a Friday sell off but today was ridiculous. Luckily, the two investments I was actually in both fared well. My biotech ran green for parts of the day ending it .01 below where it started & my solar ran up 13% in the regular session plus another 2.5% in after hours. Weekends become really hard on those of us yearning for Monday's market to open so that we can make the next move but they give us a chance to breathe & potentially study, as well.
Now I must warn you that since we are in the busy season at my resort, I may not be fulfilling my daily blog for the next week or so. I apologize for the inconvenience there but teaching skiing & spending time with my family will be taking precedence. Hopefully, I can post at least a few times for everyone. For now, I wanted to at least warn everyone before I seemingly disappear. Anyhow, here were the insiders I spotted on Friday, December 18:

What a week! From the Santa rally, to the interest rate hike, to the solar tax cut, to the arrest of Martin Shkreli & the new Star Wars release, we had a wild ride this week. On top of all of this, I was expected to attend multiple Christmas parties & try to keep my brain & liver healthy. All that I can say is wow!
So let me quickly give some of my notes so that I can relax for the night. I noted that BIOL made multiple lists & may be one to watch based on the investor who was buying in today (Jack Schuler). I also have that SHLD crossed over many lists today, as well. Last time it did that, I got in & made a decent swing trade off it. I will need to do more homework before I jump in again but I do like its recent filings. Also, NAV stood out to me because Carl Icahn raised his stake in the company. Finally, the most obvious one that we saw cross over many lists was KBIO. I know that I failed to post yesterday because I had a lot going on but there were KBIO insider buys yesterday as well. I almost feel bad for these major investors & institutions who spent nearly $30/share not knowing that Martin Shkreli was going to be arrested which initiated the sell off yesterday. These KBIO forms were filled out prior to the arrest.
As for the Form 4 buys, please pay attention to the ones that are repeated quite often & the one's that have news coming. I only had notes that the CFO's I saw filing work for: AINV, CBIO, EXA, OHAI & BSGM. The largest buy today via Form 4 was for RWC for just over $5.5 million worth of shares purchased.
The largest monetary Form 4 daily sale that I saw pass through was for EQY disposing $373,710,000 worth of shares via three sellers. Then, the CFO's that I saw filing sales work for: AVGO, CSV, CNSL, BCRX, CLC, GWRE, VSAT, PLAY & AMBA. I don't typically report the option sales in this unless they sell all of them but I will mention that an insider actually exercised options & sold many shares of DIS today.
That is all that I have for now. Only time will tell if I do any blogging between now & New Year's. That being said be cautious & smart with the current market conditions. If you don't know what to do, sit the bench until the turbulence settles. I wish you all a Happy Holiday season.

What a week! From the Santa rally, to the interest rate hike, to the solar tax cut, to the arrest of Martin Shkreli & the new Star Wars release, we had a wild ride this week. On top of all of this, I was expected to attend multiple Christmas parties & try to keep my brain & liver healthy. All that I can say is wow!
So let me quickly give some of my notes so that I can relax for the night. I noted that BIOL made multiple lists & may be one to watch based on the investor who was buying in today (Jack Schuler). I also have that SHLD crossed over many lists today, as well. Last time it did that, I got in & made a decent swing trade off it. I will need to do more homework before I jump in again but I do like its recent filings. Also, NAV stood out to me because Carl Icahn raised his stake in the company. Finally, the most obvious one that we saw cross over many lists was KBIO. I know that I failed to post yesterday because I had a lot going on but there were KBIO insider buys yesterday as well. I almost feel bad for these major investors & institutions who spent nearly $30/share not knowing that Martin Shkreli was going to be arrested which initiated the sell off yesterday. These KBIO forms were filled out prior to the arrest.
As for the Form 4 buys, please pay attention to the ones that are repeated quite often & the one's that have news coming. I only had notes that the CFO's I saw filing work for: AINV, CBIO, EXA, OHAI & BSGM. The largest buy today via Form 4 was for RWC for just over $5.5 million worth of shares purchased.
The largest monetary Form 4 daily sale that I saw pass through was for EQY disposing $373,710,000 worth of shares via three sellers. Then, the CFO's that I saw filing sales work for: AVGO, CSV, CNSL, BCRX, CLC, GWRE, VSAT, PLAY & AMBA. I don't typically report the option sales in this unless they sell all of them but I will mention that an insider actually exercised options & sold many shares of DIS today.
That is all that I have for now. Only time will tell if I do any blogging between now & New Year's. That being said be cautious & smart with the current market conditions. If you don't know what to do, sit the bench until the turbulence settles. I wish you all a Happy Holiday season.

Finding the Next Big Trade
Now that the FED's decision is behind us, there is a bit less fear during our Santa Rally. I guessed wrong & picked DUST but got out as soon as I could. I took a small loss but whatever. DUST will run again soon but I was too anxious. I'm also still holding my little biotech & my solar which both acquired gains today. Regardless, I'm going to be slow this week to trade. I have a lot going on into the New Year so I may even start flailing more with my daily blog. I'm sorry to disappoint because we are all looking for the next big trade. Hopefully, we find it. Either way, here were the insider trades I saw on Wednesday:
Form 3's: SN, IPHS, KOS, UTG, CRMT, RTEC, GBLI, ANGI, ANTM, PMTS, BIND, ACHN (2), CDW, TRUE, EQIX, FSAM, RVNC, NHTC, THST & BANC

Form 4's (Insider Acquirements for $0): RJF (9), SN, LGL (5), HMPR (3), SBSI, MELA, ACIW, OA, TRCB, JWN (2), AF, EE, DPDW (2), GRMN (8), ACET (2), RUN, YCB (9), SCTY (2), SPG, INTL (7), IRM, LNKD, DPS, DLA (6), EXTR, TEL (14), TRUE, BLKB, WRE (8), ZEN (9), NFX, DMND, CBZ, GRPN, TPLM, RKDA, IRWD (2), LXRP, KBR, SHAK, DY (6), FB, SMTX, RVNC, INTL, STRZA (3), GOOG, RTK (2) & RNF (5)
Form 4's (Insider Sales): RJF (7), SNI, GENC, ZEN (7), HMPR (3), RKUS, KELYA, GPK, PLAY (3), RNET, TYL, EVBS, EMCI, AMSWA, NAO, K, VLGEA, DTRM, RLOG, BLL, ETN, ESS (2), BCR (5), CUO, PSA, EMCI, DGAS (3), CSCD, FDEF, KR (4), OIS, CVBF, GAS, PLKI, PMT, CRMT, CLH (4), LLY, SYK, BLD, BWEN, MFA (6), PEO, TMO, ARTNA, CLRB, GRMN (6), ASEI, VRA, CATM (3), HTLD, HIVE, ATHN, LPLA (3), TYPE (6), PANW, ANTM, LOCK, BWA, VR, HUBS, MAMS (4), CCF, SCVL, VRNS, KORS (4), RP (3), MHLR, TA (5), CBM, CTL, HA, BMY, GWRE (3), IRM, LC, LNKD (2), PLUS, YCB, SHAK (5), RGS, DGX, UTHR, ACAS, HBI (3), SONC (2), LNG, ANFC, CBG, PSA, NTG, BWEN, IT, USPH, SCSC, CL, PARR, BCLI (3), TEL (16), DHX, NFX (5), CNTY, ABCO, HIL, MTN, DMND (2), SFNC, JASN 95), WRK, LBTYK, BANR, DLA, CBZ, IMAX, OFED, DXCM, SXCL, RRC, GRPN, JIVE, CBDS, EOG (2), RKDA, OTIC (2), FCH, SCOR, SFY (2), CVT, EW, USNA (2), DY (6), FB (2), EXTR (6), NILE, SMTX, BRCD, PCL, XENT, INGN (2), AVGR, GEVO (5), CRM, RDNT, STRZA (3), PWN, FCFS, PEGI (7), RMD, CNCE, GOOG, XOXO, NOW (4), MOH, SGEN, PATK, SKX, RTK (2), RNF (5), CMN, PAHC, CNXR, TACT, PG, ATRA, UNF, QSR & CENT
Form 4's (Insider Disposals for $0): STL, SYKE, CBSH (2), XOM, PESI 92), AF (8), JWN, FCTY, RDNT, RJF, ESRX, LMNR, ATHN, SCTY, SPG (2), DPS, HBI (6), SONC, MDRX, LFUS, ACGL, NVRO, MNST (2), NVR, MDVN, CBZ, OFED, WEYS (2), SCOR, SHAK, AVGR, TPH & STRSA (2)
Okay, late nighters....it's getting late & I have a lot to do but here is my quick version. You may be too late on some of these but keep your eyes on them. The insider's know what is up.
Today's largest Form 4 buy went to QSR that touched almost each list. $596,441,940 worth of QSR shares were purchased via From 4 today but that is equivalent to the amount sold via Form 4. The second highest buy today went to CEQP with just of $12 million worth of shares purchased. As I typically like to "follow the money", the CFO's that were buying today work for: CBK, PDLI, AGX, BSGM, ARES, KFS, FENX, PSEC, RSO, OHAI, OFG & CMFN.
The largest sale I saw today was HUGE selling a whopping $4,000,000,000,000,000 worth of NTG shares. That's way too much. Oddly, QSR took second with the figure I just mentioned above. The CFO's whom sold today work for: ZEN, NOW, RKDA, FCFS, DY, CENT, GEVO, LC, ACAS, USPH, ESS, PSA, TYL, PLAY, RKUS & CATM.
Following the insiders can lead us to the next big trade if we study. I'm sorry I don't have more for you but it's a busy time of year for me. I hope that something in here is helpful to someone who reads this.

Awaiting the FED & the Market Reaction
I was supposed to go to two holiday parties tonight but my fate changed last minute & I was able to catch some of the debate while giving my liver a rest. I felt brutal today. Either way, like everyone else is, I am anxiously awaiting the FED decision & how they present it tomorrow. I know that many of you are on the sidelines awaiting the market reaction before getting back in. I also realize that many of you are invested across the boards hence the rallies that have occurred the past two days. Personally, I chose a couple of risky plays but I don't want to disclose them...after tonight's energy announcement, I am feeling like I will need to make some moves early. I wish you all the best however the market does react. That being said, here is tonight's list & what I saw today:
Form 3's: TRXO (2), LXP, TSN, GMO, MBVT (2), ERN (2), BASI, OUTR, PF, WEN (2), SIRI (2), STVI, AMTY ASFI & SXC

Here are my observations from the day. Wendy's was crossing several areas (WEN). It looks like they may have a few new people but nothing to watch just yet. There were a ton of repeats on the lists, as usual. That is definitely something to pay attention to. For example, Aircastle (AYR) has been on here everyday for what seems forever & look where they're chart went today. That company has a cool concept & I decided to check it out when I saw the "rent a jet" commercial on Bloomberg today. Also, Sirius XM (SIRI) stood out to me with the Howard Stern news so I checked that chart & it has definite promise. What else...oh yeah..I apologize for yesterday's report. I was totally not up to par. I also failed to note yesterday that Carl Icahn pulled back out of Xerox (XRX).
The largest buy today was for Restaurant Brands Intl (QSR) with two big buyers who bought nearly $200 million worth of shares. The largest sale I saw today was for Cyrusone, Inc (CONE) for just under $50 million worth of shares sold. The insider CFO's buying today work for: FXCM, ECC, TCRD, HCAP, LAND, CVA, GTIM & PLX. The insider CFO's selling work for: ITCI, AIZ, SPAN, CLNT, ATRO, SEDG & EKFC.
Interestingly enough, the buying side definitely challenged the selling side today. The Santa Claus rally is here & the entire world seems okay with the likelihood of a rate hike in the USA (the 1st in a decade). Tomorrow will be a day to keep your eyes on banks,volatility, gold, oil, energy, etc. There is still uncertainty looming to how the markets will react & based on how the FED's decision is presented, things we may feel are sure shots may get skewed. Whatever you chose to do, be careful.

Here are my observations from the day. Wendy's was crossing several areas (WEN). It looks like they may have a few new people but nothing to watch just yet. There were a ton of repeats on the lists, as usual. That is definitely something to pay attention to. For example, Aircastle (AYR) has been on here everyday for what seems forever & look where they're chart went today. That company has a cool concept & I decided to check it out when I saw the "rent a jet" commercial on Bloomberg today. Also, Sirius XM (SIRI) stood out to me with the Howard Stern news so I checked that chart & it has definite promise. What else...oh yeah..I apologize for yesterday's report. I was totally not up to par. I also failed to note yesterday that Carl Icahn pulled back out of Xerox (XRX).
The largest buy today was for Restaurant Brands Intl (QSR) with two big buyers who bought nearly $200 million worth of shares. The largest sale I saw today was for Cyrusone, Inc (CONE) for just under $50 million worth of shares sold. The insider CFO's buying today work for: FXCM, ECC, TCRD, HCAP, LAND, CVA, GTIM & PLX. The insider CFO's selling work for: ITCI, AIZ, SPAN, CLNT, ATRO, SEDG & EKFC.
Interestingly enough, the buying side definitely challenged the selling side today. The Santa Claus rally is here & the entire world seems okay with the likelihood of a rate hike in the USA (the 1st in a decade). Tomorrow will be a day to keep your eyes on banks,volatility, gold, oil, energy, etc. There is still uncertainty looming to how the markets will react & based on how the FED's decision is presented, things we may feel are sure shots may get skewed. Whatever you chose to do, be careful.

The Ides of December
Happy weekend, friends! Whether you are celebrating Hanukkah or just starting to get you Christmas grove on on whatever, I hope that you are able to step away from the monstracity we are facing in the markets & just let it go, let it snow, do some blow. Just kidding but I hear that's what the Wall Street guys are into. Either way, I personally took a step back (as anyone who follows this does now) but I started my volatility game with TVIX on Thursday & SQQQ on Friday. I still hold a biotech that I do believe in, along with TERP's red-headed step cousin GLBL. We shall see if/when I get out of that. The funny thing is that the tendencies are doing the same as TERP did to me in the beginning & eventually what chased me out. This time, though the timing is awful, I will hold a bit longer. That being said, here were the insiders that I caught on Friday:

So...as for insider action today...we see a lot of repeaters; we see a lot of more low profile tickers, we see a lot less of sales versus buys. What we see is just the Ides of December. A lot of people likely to move tor lose cash this time of year for multiple reasoning. That being said, I somewhat followed suit. It's bizarre how the charts actually can nail the date of the S&P decline again. Charts don't seem to lie. I was able to move my money into what is safe now & on the sidelines. That being said, it's late & we all probably need to study over the course of the weekend. I'm just going put the main rundown out there.
Beginning with insider buyers & AYR having another buy. The company is similar to Uber but for jets. This might be worth looking into during more stable times. There are many other repeaters, too. If you are tracking the insiders, pay attention to their earnings reports & things like patents, FDA approvals, etc. A few tickers crossed several boards which is worth looking into. Though MNRK had the highest number of insider buys at 15, the largest investment into a company today went to TTO with over $20 million worth of shares bought. VNDA was the second largest purchase du jour with just over $10 million worth of shares bought. Regardless, in awful market times like these, pay notice to who's buying & also what tickers are green. Finally, the only CFO's I saw buying work for: NK, HPQ, PHX, TEX, MNRK, MTW, FGP & CRBP.
The insider sales today also crossed many categories of my dissection. Check it out. As for the "biggies", the top sale of the day on Friday, the top sale went to FIT for over $65 million worth of shares dropped. Second & third in the sell off ran neck in neck with CDW dropping $52,860.000 worth of shares immediately followed by AR with $52,500,000 worth of shares dropped. The CFO's today were selling their stakes in: OFG, PDCE, AVGO, CVT, CBG, STNR, CNC, ACHC, BKU, SCSC, FBP, PRTA, HBI, CYT & MFA.
A huge factor of next week will be hedging your investments. I don't want to even remotely give advice here but please consider it. There are ETF's & ETN's that can & will work in your favor. That being said, happy homework weekend!

So...as for insider action today...we see a lot of repeaters; we see a lot of more low profile tickers, we see a lot less of sales versus buys. What we see is just the Ides of December. A lot of people likely to move tor lose cash this time of year for multiple reasoning. That being said, I somewhat followed suit. It's bizarre how the charts actually can nail the date of the S&P decline again. Charts don't seem to lie. I was able to move my money into what is safe now & on the sidelines. That being said, it's late & we all probably need to study over the course of the weekend. I'm just going put the main rundown out there.
Beginning with insider buyers & AYR having another buy. The company is similar to Uber but for jets. This might be worth looking into during more stable times. There are many other repeaters, too. If you are tracking the insiders, pay attention to their earnings reports & things like patents, FDA approvals, etc. A few tickers crossed several boards which is worth looking into. Though MNRK had the highest number of insider buys at 15, the largest investment into a company today went to TTO with over $20 million worth of shares bought. VNDA was the second largest purchase du jour with just over $10 million worth of shares bought. Regardless, in awful market times like these, pay notice to who's buying & also what tickers are green. Finally, the only CFO's I saw buying work for: NK, HPQ, PHX, TEX, MNRK, MTW, FGP & CRBP.
The insider sales today also crossed many categories of my dissection. Check it out. As for the "biggies", the top sale of the day on Friday, the top sale went to FIT for over $65 million worth of shares dropped. Second & third in the sell off ran neck in neck with CDW dropping $52,860.000 worth of shares immediately followed by AR with $52,500,000 worth of shares dropped. The CFO's today were selling their stakes in: OFG, PDCE, AVGO, CVT, CBG, STNR, CNC, ACHC, BKU, SCSC, FBP, PRTA, HBI, CYT & MFA.
A huge factor of next week will be hedging your investments. I don't want to even remotely give advice here but please consider it. There are ETF's & ETN's that can & will work in your favor. That being said, happy homework weekend!

Insiders that I Tracked Today & a Small Rant
Good evening & sorry this is coming out so late but it may be like that more & more now that ski season is really here. Wow....just wow, I truly can't believe Vail Resorts (MTN) beat their earnings this morning! I would have bet against them had I known their earnings was today. Luckily, I didn't. Vail is taking over the world of skiing but I just didn't think they'd have enough gusto in the Summer & Fall to deliver though they do have Southern Hemisphere resorts. Anyhow, kudos to you Vail Resorts. You defied my belief.
I'm not sure what all of you are trading but considering the end of the year is approaching & the Fed is likely to raise interests rates on the 16th, I personally have begun exiting some more positions. I'm glad I held off on Disney (DIS) again today. I will be in before the 24th but it's still not the right timing in my opinion. Next, I'm a little bummed that I missed a DUST day but oh well. I got to take my daughter skiing. I pretty much sold everything except these 2 pennies that have been running (both ASTI & NETE). I kind of plan on looking for exits on both tomorrow while I'm up, though. It'll be great to start doing some of the bigger plays again but I'm kind of going to lay low & go in & out of what I see with promising charts for the next little bit here. Anyhow, enough with my banter, here were the insider's I tracked today:
Form 3's: SXT (2), CZFS, KBIO, FGP, COG, SRDX, MORN, FGP, HBKA, KCG (2), MPC (2), VGGL, VRSN, RDUS, SCON, CSRA (8), RXDX & LTRX
13D's: SMQA, MPLX (4), MED, LNG, QST, RSTRF, RLMD, APP, ITEX, GMCR, CO, HMIN, CEA, PBY, HIL, SNTA, NROM, SMSA (2), ISIG, AC & ATRM
13G's: ANDAU, SPEX (-) & AKP (+)
Form 4's (Insider Buys): NES, HI (2), TRC, MNK (3), NGL (4), TIPT, LXP, FRAF (2), CRBP, FMD, FBNC, ENBL, CMOH, GAM, CWBC, WFBI (19), CPXX, MLP, OTIV, UNP, LION (8), MMS, CLBH, NSH, CECE, AVY, PULB, NRG (3), KRO, SBCP (2), NUTR (2), KHI, FF, HLX, ANF (2), ORM, BOCH, CZBS (6), DDD, NBL, HCAP, CERU, EPD (4), WHLR (4), DM, PTN, IMI (2), MSCO, XON, CNBKA, MSBF, TSI, VGGL, GGP, SYRX, PNNT, MYGN, FGP, LOB (2), SUPN, OKSB, WPT, NWFL, DPT, MGM, LNG, GLAD, EPM (6), EVOL, FLKS, DDS, ARTW, REN (3), ETE (2), NMIH, SMCG, SHLD, PDLI, SSI, HIFR (6), JCAP, SSRG, TEGP, AYR, NCLH, CELP, PDLY, UND, SBCP, CCD (2, CAMB, PHIIK & JJSP

Form 4's (Insiders Disposed for $0): DARA (5), ONFC (2), CTSH, SNV, SMED, STI, CVCY, SNI, APGR, SBGI, NWBI, STI, SBSI (3), BURL, BLKB (2), UGI, JJSF, TRMK, USCR, STL, FMCB, CRVL, PEI, XONE & ALK
So...I, like so many of you, am always looking for the next "big" investment &/or trade & recently I've heard that Martin Shkreli is going to buy another company so I began watching his webcasts (when I am afforded time to). I was in one over the weekend (in & out but it was open...I have a toddler...I can't be completely invested in these things). This one that I watched was less informational than others I've seen. Martin is a really knowledgeable man & a decent teacher I have discovered. Either way, this one occurred after an office party he attended so his mind wasn't at the top of it's game. It began as a lesson but then became more or less entertainment for the viewers. Finally, Martin quit interacting with his audience & moved on to a computer game. In the live chat, a moderator asked how we got into trading. There were crickets. No one responded for a hot minute. I felt like an awkward tension was evident so I began. From there I was asked more questions. Upon answering the questions to the most thorough of my ability, the moderator told me to stop soliciting. I was beyond offended. A. I didn't mention any specific names, websites, etc. B. he was essentially telling me not to solicit my blog which I do completely for free & only began sharing recently because I figured why not share my work & C. the reason any of it came up was because I was asked questions & wanted to answer thoroughly. Regardless, I was irritated, annoyed, maybe even hurt by this minion's futile comment. I truly hope that nobody who does read my blog thinking that I am doing this for money. I literally have been doing the work for myself for awhile now & only recently decided to share with others for the greater good, based on a friend's request. That being said, I hope my extra work in actually journaling this online is appreciated by at least some readers. This is the most thorough list of insider transactions that you are going to find for free. I apologize for the vent but it was necessary.
Moving on...in the top section, KBIO stands out but I believe it's just the addition of a board member or something. I honestly haven't had the time to read that form yet. Another that really stood out to me was the 13D for LNG filed by Carl Icahn along with his major Form 4 he filed. Maybe it's almost time to get back into the energy sector with this one. I really respect Carl Icahn & his choices.
As for the Form 4's buys I tracked today, LNG had the largest insider purchase made with over $120 million worth of shares bought by Mr. Icahn. The second largest purchase I saw was for ETE & the third largest was for SHLD (both over $20 million bought). The only CFO's I tracked buying shares in their companies today work for: NRG, EPM, MNK, ETE & HIFR. Like I say, follow the money & usually the CFO's know the money the best.
The Form 4 insider sales that I tracked today were on a bit shorter list than usual. From what I saw, STOR lead the insider selling with over $44.5 million worth of shares sold followed by COTY with just under $28 million & SIX with just above $23 million worth of shares sold off. The only CFO's I saw selling today work for: DPS, SCLN, TYL, NUVA & N. I truly hope this information helps someone out there. I wish I had more insights for you tonight but I need to do my homework first.
