WHY THIS SIGNAL?

Score anatomy

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

Cluster+14.0 / 35

How many distinct insiders bought in the cluster

Purchase size+19.5 / 25

Purchase value relative to company size and liquidity

Role+7.0 / 20

The seniority and relevance of participating insiders

Recency+8.5 / 10

How recently the purchases occurred

Conviction+8.2 / 10

How clearly buying stands out from other activity

What is holding the score back?

  • ⚠ Buyer breadth is moderate · fewer than 4 distinct filers
  • ⚠ Insider role contributes less on the current role scale
  • ✓ Recent activity · latest purchase 2026-10-08

The role contribution follows the US model's seniority ladder.

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 US screening rules—not a probability of gain, return forecast, or buy recommendation.

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.

×A sale

A cross is one insider's sales on one day. People sell to pay tax, to cash in share awards or to hold less of one company, so a sale says less than a purchase does. When someone bought and sold on the same day, the cross sits beside the dot. The totals are under “Purchases against sales” below.

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.

Where the evidence comes from

Independent evidence does not object: the purchases themselves carry bull lines (more buyers than usual here, large purchases, purchase added much to the holding, bought in the last two weeks); short sellers were checked and none crosses a bear threshold. No data is held for: share price and trading, company results, company actions.

  • The insider purchases themselvesBullmore buyers than usual here, large purchases, purchase added much to the holding, bought in the last two weeks Bearvalue concentrated in one buyer4 checked, under the threshold · 1 missing
  • Share price and tradingno data held
  • Short sellers1 checked, under the threshold
  • Company results2 missing
  • Company actionsno data held

Bull case · the buying is informative

  • No insider bought in the 180 days before this window; 2 have bought in it. The buying is new for this company, not a habit.
  • Insiders committed a net $1.8M of their own money in 180 days.
  • 1 of 2 purchase filings states the shares held before and after. The largest addition to an existing holding took it from 5,727 to 25,727 shares (+349%). A holding here is one way of owning the shares: directly, or through one named trust or entity.
  • The latest purchase is 10 days old (2026-10-08). The buying is current, not left over from an earlier quarter.

Bear case · discount it

  • KUKES SIMON G; SGK 2018 REVOCABLE TRUST accounts for 87% of the value bought. The other 1 buyer adds names more than money.

Evidence still missing

  • No buyer here has 5 or more completed earlier purchases on record, so there is no track record to weigh.
  • The company's market value is not captured, so the purchases cannot be stated as a share of the business or of its trading volume.
  • No earnings, margin or cash-flow figures are captured for this company. The latest annual and interim reports are where to check whether the business is improving or deteriorating.
Checked and under the threshold: 5
  • BullAt most 1 insider bought within any 15 days. Counted for the bull side from 3.
  • BearInsiders sold $405k in the same 180 days, 18% of the amount bought. Counted for the bear side from 25%.
  • BearNone of the 1 purchase filing ticks Form 4's 10b5-1 box.
  • BearNo insider filing in the last 180 days opened a hedge on this stock.
  • BearFINRA short interest on 2026-09-30 equals 1.8 days of average trading volume, down 40% from the previous report. Counted for the bear side from 10 days, or from 10% of the shares outstanding.

Both columns arrange stored facts only. They do not change the insider score or the ranking and are not investment advice.

There is not yet a 30-calendar-day comparison; earlier scores are not reconstructed. These are raw signal scores saved when each full scoring run completed. They describe changes in research ranking, not price performance or returns.

Why did it change?

Less than 30 days of comparable history is available, so factor movement is not yet decomposed.

Results dates are the company's 8-K filings to the SEC under Item 2.02 (results of operations); one filed after the close counts from the next session. Purchases are open-market buys reported on Form 4 (code P), by trade date; a Form 4 can arrive two business days after the trade, so the latest days can still fill in. Facts only; this does not change the score or rank.

Filing evidence

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.
