WHY THIS SIGNAL?

Score anatomy

Each bar shows the contribution to the current score; the weights and formula stay unchanged.

Cluster+21.0 / 35

How many distinct insiders bought in the cluster

Purchase size+21.1 / 25

Purchase value relative to company size and liquidity

Role+20.0 / 20

The seniority and relevance of participating insiders

Recency+0.0 / 10

How recently the purchases occurred

Conviction+10.0 / 10

How clearly buying stands out from other activity

What is holding the score back?

  • ⚠ Buyer breadth is moderate · fewer than 4 distinct filers
  • ⚠ Purchase activity is becoming less recent
  • ✓ Strong insider role · ceo/chair involved

The role contribution uses the inverted role input of the current European model.

The headline € total is net buying for the screen; this module uses gross qualified purchase transaction-line values in the filing currency, so the amounts can differ. The current 15-day buyer-breadth input counts distinct buyers; value concentration is disclosed separately here.

This is a ranking under the current European screening rules—not a probability of gain, return forecast, or buy recommendation.

Markers sit on the closing price of the transaction day. They show when insiders traded, not the price they paid or received. "Since" compares that day's close with the last close shown; it is what happened at this company, not a forecast.

Insider timeline

2 insiders bought within 2 days, 20 May to 21 May: 1 CEO / chair, 1 Board member. 1 more bought afterwards. The share closed at 132.90 on the first of those days and at 139.00 most recently (+4.6%). That week 244 companies across Europe disclosed insider purchases, more than in 96% of the last 26 weeks: insiders often buy together when a closed period ends, so the timing alone says less than it seems.

Tap an item for what it means.

●A purchase: the bigger the dot, the more was bought

Each dot is one insider's purchases on one day. The dot's area follows the amount: the largest purchase here gets the largest dot. Hold the pointer over a dot to see the date and the amount.

▮Purple band: several insiders bought within 15 days

The band marks the stretch with the most different buyers: at most 15 days long and at least two people. Here it is 20 May – 21 May, with 2 insiders. Only the strongest stretch is marked. Several people deciding the same thing is harder to explain by one person's private reasons, but insiders often buy together just after a closed period ends, so compare it with the grey weekly bars.

Blue line: this share's price, +4.1% over these six months

The closing price of each day, from 133.50 on 2026-04-21 to 139.00 on 2026-10-07. The line has no scale; read it for high and low: a dot on a low stretch was bought cheaply, a dot on a high stretch was not.

Dashed line: the typical stock on the same exchange, −9.1%

Taken from the 457 other stocks on the same exchange that this site holds prices for. Each is measured from the first day of the window, and every day the middle one is drawn. It starts where the blue line starts, so the gap between the two is the difference: this share +4.1%, the typical one −9.1%, 13.2 points ahead. It is not an index and not a comparison within one industry.

▂Grey bars: companies across Europe disclosing purchases each week

A taller bar is a week in which more companies disclosed insider purchases. The purple bar is the week of the band above: 244 companies, number 1 of the last 26 weeks. If that week was a peak anyway, buying together is less special than it looks.

BULL VS BEAR

Two readings of this buying

The same filings, read two ways. Each line is a fact stored for this company with the number behind it, and appears only when that number crosses a fixed threshold. Neither side is a forecast and no winner is declared.

Since 2026-10-13, neither column has changed. All bull and bear lists, and what followed each line in the past →

Where the evidence comes from

Independent evidence does not object: the purchases themselves carry bull lines (senior executive buying, buyer's past purchases beat the benchmark); share price and trading, short sellers, company results were checked and none crosses a bear threshold. No data is held for: company actions.

  • The insider purchases themselvesBullsenior executive buying, buyer's past purchases beat the benchmark Bearvalue concentrated in one buyer, latest purchase is old, usual level for this company4 checked, under the threshold · 2 missing
  • Share price and trading2 checked, under the threshold
  • Short sellers1 checked, under the threshold
  • Company results1 checked, under the threshold · 1 missing
  • Company actions1 missing

Bull case · the buying is informative

  • The buyers include the CEO or chair, who sees more of the business than most filers. This site's score gives little or no credit for that: in its backtests purchases by senior executives did no better than other insiders' purchases.Record: after 8,797 earlier disclosures like this, the median 60-session excess return was −3.1%, within 1 percentage point of all comparable disclosures (−3.2%).
  • The 5 earlier purchases by Mattias Rengstedt beat OMX Stockholm 30 by a median 2.9% over the following 60 trading days.

Bear case · discount it

  • Fredrik Wester accounts for 88% of the value bought. The other 2 buyers add names more than money.Record: after 3,396 earlier disclosures like this, the median 60-session excess return was −3.4%, within 1 percentage point of all comparable disclosures (−3.5%).
  • The latest purchase was 127 days ago (2026-06-12). A reporting period has passed since, so what the buyers knew then may already be public.
  • Buying at this level is normal here: 8 insiders bought in the previous 180 days and 3 in this one.Record: after 2,869 earlier disclosures like this, the median 60-session excess return was −2.6%, within 1 percentage point of all comparable disclosures (−2.7%).

Evidence still missing

  • Only one reading of profitability is held (profit margin 5.7%). Whether earnings and cash flow are rising or falling needs the last two reports side by side.
  • The next scheduled results are on 2026-10-29. They are the first hard test of either reading.
  • European notifications have no field saying whether a purchase was pre-arranged; there is no counterpart to the US 10b5-1 box. None of the 6 purchase lines mentions a plan, but a bare “Förvärv” does not rule one out.
  • The filings give the size of each trade, not what the buyer already held. Whether a purchase added 1% to a personal stake or doubled it is not known.
Checked and under the threshold: 8, 1 close to it
  • BullAt most 2 insiders bought within any 15 days. Counted for the bull side from 3. close to the threshold
  • Bear0 of 3 buyers filed as a person closely associated with a manager. Counted for the bear side from half.
  • EitherNet purchases equal 0.03% of the company's market value. Bull from 0.10%, bear below 0.01%.
  • BearNo insider sale is recorded in the same 180 days.
  • BearThe share price changed +13% over six months (three months +4.5%, one month −1.6%). Counted for the bear side from a fall of 20%.
  • BearOver three months the share price changed +4.5% and the median of 122 Communication Services companies changed −1.7%: ahead by 6 points. Counted for the bear side from 20 points behind.
  • BearThe register of Finansinspektionen shows no published net short position in this company. Positions under 0.5% are never published, so this does not show that nobody is short.
  • BearProfit margin on the latest captured figures is 5.7%. Counted for the bear side when negative.

Insider profile outcomes

Historical performance following insider filings. The company role is translated below each name while preserving the original title.

Events are disclosure-level observations; related disclosures published on the same date may share a return path and may not be statistically independent. This research enrichment does not affect the insider score or ranking.

Disclosed net short positions

The Finansinspektionen register, read 18 Oct 2026, publishes no net short position of 0.5% or more in this issuer. Positions below 0.5% are never published, so this is not evidence that nobody is short.

Short-position disclosures are external context; they do not affect the insider score, ranking, or filing eligibility.

These are underlying national-feed records from the 365-day window ending on the saved ranking snapshot. The score uses only the latest 180 days; older qualifying equity purchases remain visible for audit but do not enter the current score. The original filer, role, transaction classification, instrument, price, volume, value and source fields are retained. The first three rows are shown; remaining records can be unfolded for audit. Other transaction types are retained but excluded from the score.
