Friday's Insider Report: Founder and chairman trades over $2-million worth of this stockFriday's Insider Report: Founder and chairman trades over $2-million worth of this stock DOO.TSX, G.TSX, AC.TSX, ARE.TSX Featured below are companies that have experienced recent insider trading activity in the public market through their direct and indirect ownerships, including accounts they have control or direction over. The list features insider transaction activity; it does not convey total ownership information as an insider may hold numerous accounts. Keep in mind, when looking at transaction activities by insiders, purchasing activity may reflect perceived value in a security. Selling activity may or may not be related to a stock's valuation; perhaps an insider needs to raise money for personal reasons. An insider's total holdings should be considered because a sale may, in context, be insignificant if this person has a large remaining position in the company. I tend to put great weight on insider transaction activity when I see multiple insiders trading a company's shares or units. Let's begin the report featuring two companies that have had insider buying activity. Let's begin the report featuring two securities that have had recent insider buying activity. BRP Inc.
