As global markets navigate the complexities of a new U.S. administration and shifting economic policies, investors are keeping a close eye on sector performances and regulatory changes that could impact corporate earnings. Amid this backdrop, companies with high insider ownership often attract attention due to the confidence insiders have in their firm's growth potential, making them appealing options for those looking to align with informed stakeholders during uncertain times.
