As global markets navigate a mixed landscape marked by fluctuating consumer confidence and economic data, major U.S. stock indexes have shown moderate gains, particularly driven by large-cap growth stocks. In this environment, companies with high insider ownership can be appealing to investors seeking alignment of interests between management and shareholders, especially when these companies are demonstrating strong earnings growth.
