RatingPrice TargetLast week's calm in insider-sentiment data from Vickers Stock Research
Last week's calm in insider-sentiment data from Vickers Stock Research apparently was a one-week wonder, as stock indices and insider-sentiment readings are again moving in wild fashion. We started focusing on concerning insider-sentiment data back in mid-January, much of which was coming from companies that trade on the Nasdaq. That carried on for multiple weeks and, on occasion, the NYSE data would also sour. Last week, the data seemingly calmed -- but stocks did not respond in kind, and Friday capped a week in which the major indices dropped by as much as 2.5%. So how did insiders respond? Not so well. The sell/buy ratios from Vickers are bullish under 2.00, neutral from 2.00 to 6.00, and bearish over 6.00. The current one-week ratios are 9.00 for the NYSE (versus 5.03 last week) and 5.21 for the Nasdaq (4.19 last week). That results in eight-week ratios of 5.66 for the NYSE (versus 5.02 last week) and 6.54 for the Nasdaq (6.18 last week). So the data is neutral-to-bearish and trending in the wrong direction. Investors, insiders included, appear to be struggling with many issues in the early months of 2025. On a sector basis, selling was the greatest in Healthcare over the last week, with shares valued at $97 million sold versus $10 million bought, and followed by Industrial, Consumer Discretionary, Financial, and Energy. There were no sectors in which insider buying outpaced selling. This week, analysts at Vickers highlighted insider transactions of interest at Royal Caribbean Cruises Ltd. (NYSE: RCL) and Ameriprise Financial, Inc. (NYSE: AMP).
