Insiders At EBay Sold US$3.5m In Stock, Alluding To Potential Weakness
Over the past year, many eBay Inc. (NASDAQ:EBAY) insiders sold a significant stake in the company which may have piqued investors' interest. When analyzing insider transactions, it is usually more valuable to know whether insiders are buying versus knowing if they are selling, as the latter sends an ambiguous message. However, if numerous insiders are selling, shareholders should investigate more.
在過去的一年中,許多eBay公司(納斯達克股票代碼:EBAY)內部人士出售了該公司的大量股份,這可能激起了投資者的興趣。在分析內幕交易時,了解內部人士是否在買入通常比知道他們是否在賣出更有價值,因爲後者發出的信息模棱兩可。但是,如果有許多內部人士出售,股東應該進行更多調查。
Although we don't think shareholders should simply follow insider transactions, we do think it is perfectly logical to keep tabs on what insiders are doing.
儘管我們認爲股東不應簡單地關注內幕交易,但我們確實認爲密切關注內部人士的所作所爲是完全合乎邏輯的。
The Last 12 Months Of Insider Transactions At eBay
eBay 最近 12 個月的內幕交易
Over the last year, we can see that the biggest insider sale was by the insider, Marie Huber, for US$2.4m worth of shares, at about US$49.63 per share. That means that even when the share price was below the current price of US$58.80, an insider wanted to cash in some shares. We generally consider it a negative if insiders have been selling, especially if they did so below the current price, because it implies that they considered a lower price to be reasonable. Please do note, however, that sellers may have a variety of reasons for selling, so we don't know for sure what they think of the stock price. It is worth noting that this sale was only 22% of Marie Huber's holding.
在過去的一年中,我們可以看到,最大的內幕出售是內部人士瑪麗·胡伯出售,出售了價值240萬美元的股票,每股約49.63美元。這意味着,即使股價低於當前的58.80美元,內部人士也想套現一些股票。如果內部人士一直在賣出,特別是如果他們賣出低於當前價格,我們通常認爲這是負面的,因爲這意味着他們認爲較低的價格是合理的。但是,請注意,賣家可能有各種各樣的賣出原因,因此我們不確定他們對股價的看法。值得注意的是,此次出售僅佔瑪麗·胡伯持股的22%。

Insiders At eBay Have Sold Stock Recently
eBay的內部人士最近出售了股票
The last quarter saw substantial insider selling of eBay shares. In total, VP, Chief Accounting Officer & Principal Accounting Officer Rebecca Spencer dumped US$231k worth of shares in that time, and we didn't record any purchases whatsoever. In light of this it's hard to argue that all the insiders think that the shares are a bargain.
上個季度,eBay股票出現了大量內幕拋售。在此期間,副總裁、首席會計官兼首席會計官麗貝卡·斯賓塞總共拋售了價值23.1萬美元的股票,我們沒有記錄任何購買記錄。有鑑於此,很難說所有內部人士都認爲股票很划算。
Insider Ownership Of eBay
eBay 的內部所有權
Many investors like to check how much of a company is owned by insiders. We usually like to see fairly high levels of insider ownership. Insiders own 0.3% of eBay shares, worth about US$93m. This level of insider ownership is good but just short of being particularly stand-out. It certainly does suggest a reasonable degree of alignment.
許多投資者喜歡查看公司內部人士擁有多少股份。我們通常希望看到相當高的內部所有權水平。內部人士擁有eBay0.3%的股份,價值約9300萬美元。這種內部所有權水平不錯,但還沒有特別突出。這無疑表明了一定程度的一致性。
