As global markets navigate the pressures of rising U.S. Treasury yields, growth stocks have shown resilience, particularly in the tech-heavy Nasdaq Composite Index, which managed slight gains despite broader market declines. In this environment of cautious optimism and moderated inflation expectations, companies with high insider ownership can be appealing due to their potential alignment between management and shareholder interests.
