As European markets navigate the complexities of U.S. trade tariffs and monetary policy uncertainties, the pan-European STOXX Europe 600 Index recently saw a decline amid these concerns. In this environment, growth companies with high insider ownership can be particularly appealing to investors, as they often reflect strong alignment between management and shareholder interests, potentially offering resilience in volatile times.
