ClearOne Insider Transactions Over The Last Year
Notably, that recent purchase by Edward Bagley is the biggest insider purchase of ClearOne shares that we’ve seen in the last year. That means that an insider was happy to buy shares at around the current price of US$2.59. Of course they may have changed their mind. But this suggests they are optimistic. While we always like to see insider buying, it’s less meaningful if the purchases were made at much lower prices, as the opportunity they saw may have passed. In this case we’re pleased to report that the insider purchases were made at close to current prices.

I like to see this level of insider ownership, because it increases the chances that management are thinking about the best interests of shareholders.
