In recent weeks, global markets have experienced notable fluctuations, with U.S. stocks giving back some gains amid uncertainties surrounding policy changes from the incoming Trump administration. This environment of volatility underscores the importance of identifying growth companies with high insider ownership, as these firms often demonstrate strong alignment between management and shareholder interests, potentially providing resilience during uncertain times.
