As global markets continue to react positively to recent political developments, with U.S. stocks reaching record highs amid optimism surrounding trade policies and AI investments, growth stocks have notably outperformed their value counterparts. In this buoyant market environment, companies with high insider ownership can be particularly attractive as they often signal confidence in the business's future prospects by those who know it best.
