As December 2024 unfolds, global markets are navigating a mixed landscape with U.S. consumer confidence dipping and major indices experiencing moderate gains amid fluctuations in economic indicators. Despite these challenges, large-cap growth stocks have shown resilience, particularly in the technology sector, which has been a driving force behind recent market rallies. In this environment, companies with high insider ownership can be particularly appealing to investors seeking stability and potential growth. High insider ownership often signals confidence from those closest to the company’s operations and can align management's interests with those of shareholders, making such companies attractive options for consideration in uncertain times.
