Insiders At EnLink Midstream Sold US$6.6m In Stock, Alluding To Potential Weakness
The fact that multiple EnLink Midstream, LLC (NYSE:ENLC) insiders offloaded a considerable amount of shares over the past year could have raised some eyebrows amongst investors. Knowing whether insiders are buying is usually more helpful when evaluating insider transactions, as insider selling can have various explanations. However, if numerous insiders are selling, shareholders should investigate more.
過去一年中，多名enlink midstream, llc (nyse:enlc)內部人士拋售了大量股份，可能引起了投資者的關注。了解內部人士是否正在買入股票通常在評估內部交易時更有幫助，因爲內部人士出售股票可能有各種解釋。但是，如果有多名內部人士在出售股票，股東應該更加調查。
While insider transactions are not the most important thing when it comes to long-term investing, we would consider it foolish to ignore insider transactions altogether.
雖然在長期投資方面內部交易並非最重要的事情，但完全忽略內部交易是愚蠢的。
The Last 12 Months Of Insider Transactions At EnLink Midstream
enlink midstream過去12個月的內部交易
In the last twelve months, the biggest single sale by an insider was when the Executive VP & CFO of EnLink Midstream Manager, Benjamin Lamb, sold US$3.0m worth of shares at a price of US$12.08 per share. So it's clear an insider wanted to take some cash off the table, even below the current price of US$14.01. When an insider sells below the current price, it suggests that they considered that lower price to be fair. That makes us wonder what they think of the (higher) recent valuation. However, while insider selling is sometimes discouraging, it's only a weak signal. It is worth noting that this sale was only 32% of Benjamin Lamb's holding.
在過去的12個月中，EnLink Midstream Manager的執行副總裁兼財務總監本傑明·蘭姆以每股12.08美元的價格出售了300萬美元的股票，是內部人士最大單筆出售。因此，很明顯有一名內部人士想要把一些現金拿出來，甚至低於當前每股14.01美元的價格。當內部人士以低於當前價位的價格出售股票時，這表明他們認爲較低的價格是公平的。這使我們想知道他們對（更高的）最近的估值有何看法。然而，雖然內部人士出售有時是令人泄氣的，但這只是一個微弱的信號。值得注意的是，這次出售僅佔本傑明·蘭姆持股的32％。
