As global markets navigate a landscape of easing inflation and robust bank earnings, major U.S. stock indexes have rebounded strongly, with value stocks outpacing growth shares amid strategic shifts in the financial and energy sectors. In such a climate, companies with high insider ownership can be particularly appealing to investors seeking alignment between management interests and shareholder value, as these insiders often have a vested interest in the long-term success of their firms.
