Analyzing Insider Buying & Selling In The Gold Mining Sector: Finding Signal Amid The Noise
The value of insider buying & selling is often misunderstood by many investors with most insider transactions falling into the 'noise' category - in this video I identify signal amid the noise.
The vast majority of insider buying & selling can be classified into the 'noise' category. However, there are times when insider transactions can offer important signal for those who are paying attention.
In this video, I discuss a notable uptick in insider selling across the gold mining sector and why insiders are typically not better market timers than the rest of us.
It’s notable that Barrick (NYSE:B, TSX:ABX) stands out from the rest of the Canadian gold producers in terms of both its insider buying activity and the size of its corporate buyback program. Meanwhile, Agnico Eagle (NYSE:AEM, TSX:AEM), Eldorado Gold (NYSE:EGO, TSX:ELD) and Kinross Gold (NYSE:KGC, TSX:K) have seen the largest volumes of insider selling so far in 2025.
I also delve into several examples of ‘signal’ from insider transactions and what made them stand out from the rest. Finally, I review a couple of examples that help to illustrate what I look for in a SEDI report.
