Insiders would probably have been better off holding on to their shares given that the average selling price of HK$1.10 is still lower than the current share price.     While we would never suggest that investors should base their decisions solely on what the directors of a company have been doing,  logic dictates you should pay some attention to whether insiders are buying or selling shares.   Check out our latest analysis for Magic Empire Global  Magic Empire Global Insider Transactions Over The Last Year   Notably, that recent sale by CEO & Director Sze Chen was not the only time they sold Magic Empire Global shares this year.  Earlier in the year, they fetched US$2.04 per share in a -US$374k sale.    We generally don't like to see insider selling, but the lower the sale price, the more it concerns us.  The good news is that this large sale was at well above current price of US$0.78.  So it may not shed much light on insider confidence at current levels.

Insiders At Magic Empire Global Have Sold Stock Recently   The last three months saw significant insider selling at Magic Empire Global.  Specifically,  insiders  ditched US$1.1m worth of shares in that time, and we didn't record any purchases whatsoever.  This may suggest that some insiders think that the shares are not cheap.     Insider Ownership  For a common shareholder, it is worth checking how many shares are held by company insiders.  I reckon it's a good sign if insiders own a significant number of shares in the company.   Magic Empire Global insiders own about US$8.8m worth of shares (which is 55% of the company).  I like to see this level of insider ownership, because it increases the chances that management are thinking about the best interests of shareholders.
