The Last 12 Months Of Insider Transactions At Gas2Grid
In the last twelve months, the biggest single purchase by an insider was when CFO, Company Secretary & Executive Director Wong Voon Sam Yue bought AU$93k worth of shares at a price of AU$0.003 per share. So it's clear an insider wanted to buy, even at a higher price than the current share price (being AU$0.002). Their view may have changed since then, but at least it shows they felt optimistic at the time. We always take careful note of the price insiders pay when purchasing shares. As a general rule, we feel more positive about a stock when an insider has bought shares at above current prices, because that suggests they viewed the stock as good value, even at a higher price. Wong Voon Sam Yue was the only individual insider to buy shares in the last twelve months.
