Five energy stocks insiders are buying up

One has been discussed as a possible takeover target, while another has an 11.73% dividend yield When insiders are buying their own stock, investors need to sit up and take notice. Although not a guarantee that a stock will rise - nothing is - insider trading activity reflects confidence in a company's potential by the people who should know best. In particular, insider buying can be an early indicator of change in fortune for a stock that has been beaten down. And because inside stock buyers are in it for the long term - they're not permitted to make short-term profits - they only buy when they feel reasonably certain of their company's longer-term prospects.
