We’ve lost count of how many times insiders have accumulated shares in a company that goes on to improve markedly. Thecost of inground pool florida flip side of that is that there are more than a few examples of insiders dumping stock prior to a period of weak performance. So shareholders might well want to know whether insiders have been buying or selling shares in
MTY Food Group Inc.
(
TSE:MTY
).
What Is Insider Buying?
It’s quite normal to see company insiders, such as board members, trading in company stock, from time to time. However, most countries require that the company discloses such transactions to the market.
Insider transactions are not the most important thing when it comes to long-term investing. But logic dictates you should pay some attention to whether insiders are buying or selling shares. For example, a Harvard University
study
found that ‘insider purchases earn abnormal returns of more than 6% per year.’

Insider Ownership
Many investors like to check how much of a company is owned by insiders. Usually, the higher the insider ownership, the more likely it is that insiders will be incentivised to build the company for the long term. It’s great to see that MTY Food Group insiders own 22% of the company, worth about CA$347m. This kind of significant ownership by insiders does generally increase the chance that the company is run in the interest of all shareholders.
