In a week marked by global economic shifts, including rate cuts from the ECB and SNB, the Nasdaq Composite stood out by reaching a record high amidst broader market declines. As growth stocks continue to outperform value stocks, driven in part by notable gains in technology giants like Tesla and Alphabet, investors are increasingly focused on companies demonstrating robust insider ownership alongside significant earnings growth. In this context, identifying companies with strong internal stakeholder commitment can be a key indicator of potential resilience and performance amid fluctuating market conditions.
