Should We Take CEO Buying/Selling Seriously?

Gelsinger paid $252,000 on Aug. 5 for 12,500 $Intel(INTC)$ shares, an average price of $20.16. You may think that $25k is no big money. But his persistence can't be ignored. Intel CEO continues to buy the stock in the past 4 years. Another notable CEO stock trade is $NVIDIA Corp(NVDA)$’s CEO sale in recent months. ---------------- Do you invest in good CEO or data? How do you view $Intel(INTC)$ CEO’s continous buying? Is it a bullish signal or not? Should we take CEO’s buying or selling seriously?

So I always get bemused when market commentators try to spread fear because insiders are selling. This really is a totally stupid metric 97% of the time. And the commentators that discuss this metric, well in my humble opinion are not worthy. So let's explore this... First up, insiders are human, they have to pay taxes and other bills like the rest of us. But they generally get stock bonuses if they achieve certain milestones, and woops, that's a huge amount of extra income, and obviously the tax department has their hand out. Could be a tax bill for $300,000 give or take if you got a million worth of stock bonuses. So you have no choice, gotta sell some stock. Maybe the super yacht blows an engine, or your daughter gets engaged, or you find a cute little mansion in Tuscany, or you watch a
Intel not as good as TSMC. I will see them continue go down. Good luck CEO

CEO’s buying is usually a sign of confidence in their company but selling doesn’t mean a lack of confidence. They usually see to take profit and to me, that is to be expected. I don’t usually pay much attention to CEO buying and selling. I look only at the company’s performance, future prospects, current stock price and macro conditions.

🧠💼 Intel CEO’s Strategic Buy: Calculated Confidence or Risky Gamble? 💼🧠 Pat Gelsinger, Intel’s CEO, recently reinforced his belief in the company’s future by acquiring 12,500 shares, adding to his already substantial holdings. While insider buying traditionally signals confidence, the nuances surrounding this action and the broader market sentiment suggest a more complex narrative. Sophisticated Hedge Fund Movements & Analyst Perspectives: The recent activity from hedge funds indicates a bifurcation in sentiment. While some institutional investors have modestly increased their positions, indicating cautious optimism, others are retracting, aligning with a more bearish outlook. Analysts are equally divided, with Goldman Sachs notably maintaining a "sell" rating and setting a price targ

The continuous buying of shares by a CEO, such as Intel's CEO, can be viewed as a bullish signal, but it's important to consider it in context. CEO purchases are often seen as a sign that the executive has confidence in the company's future prospects and believes the stock is undervalued. This can be interpreted positively by investors. However, while insider buying can be a good sign, it shouldn't be the sole factor in making investment decisions. It’s crucial to analyze other aspects such as the company's financial health, industry conditions, overall market trends, and the reasons behind the purchases. Similarly, insider selling might indicate personal financial needs or a strategic move rather than a sign of poor company performance. In summary, while CEO buying can be a positive indic
the amt he buy/sell must be compare to his total holdings I.e percentage whether is meaningful n also the reason before following his action

nvda sell but i buy
250k not 25k, so 250k is huge amount for common investors and only the one have love for the company and have money to park will do that because the person has the confidence it will not collapse. Just my opinion not investment advice. Intel shares had their biggest drop since 1974 after the chipmaker reported a big miss on earnings in the June quarter and said it would lay off more than 15% of its employees. The stock is trading at its lowest since 2013.

Should We Take CEO Buying and Selling Seriously?

🌟🌟🌟It  is good practice to track CEO transactions as a form of due diligence  as it adds more information in addition to traditional analysis and helps me to make more informed decisions on buying, holding or selling a particular stock. While tracking a CEO's buying and selling of a stock can provide me with valuable insights it is not the most important metric to assess a stock. There are also various factors as to why a CEO choose to buy or sell the company's stock.  It could be personal financial needs, tax planning, portfolio diversification or planned asset allocation.   From my standpoint, it is more important to look the company's financial statements  and other important metrics.  These would be questions on how the company is

party is over, their veterans was give up, some more can't create a better products to market, and CEO buy back their stock means just control the stock market not continue to drop , it's a useless idea to hold for long

Should take note of CEO buying/selling news and read up more on reasons & amount transacted for decision making. But small investors are slow to impactful news and have to follow through with the market response.
Awesome! Marvellous!

I don't think we should tale CEO's buying or selling seriously since it might be their personal preference or company tactics or whatever. Just do your own risk analysis before trading.

$Intel(INTC)$ share price is definitely in the pit and not seeing up in the near futu. Intel's CEO buying minimal shares while selling awards and giving himself a raise isn't a strong bullish signal. There is a need to do research and study the technical analysis of the stock price before each trade. Do invest with due diligence. Thanks @Tiger_comments
sometimes it's good to keep an eye on whether CEO is buying or selling as it may affect the stock. these big shots do not buy or sell for no reason... however, do not follow blindly, do keep track of news on the company as sometimes it may be a good thing to do the opposite. do trade cautiously though to test the water and see how the market flows and flows along with it... @Aqa @HelenJanet @rL
