As global markets navigate geopolitical tensions and consumer spending concerns, investors are closely watching the impact of these factors on economic indicators like the U.S. Services PMI, which has recently entered contraction territory. In this environment, growth companies with high insider ownership can be particularly appealing as they often demonstrate strong alignment between management and shareholder interests, potentially providing a buffer against market volatility.
