Possible Bearish Signals With VeriSign Insiders Disposing Stock
Possible Bearish Signals With VeriSign Insiders Disposing Stock
Over the past year, many VeriSign, Inc. (NASDAQ:VRSN) insiders sold a significant stake in the company which may have piqued investors' interest. When evaluating insider transactions, knowing whether insiders are buying is usually more beneficial than knowing whether they are selling, as the latter can be open to many interpretations. However, if numerous insiders are selling, shareholders should investigate more.
在过去的一年中,许多威瑞信公司(纳斯达克股票代码:VRSN)内部人士出售了该公司的大量股份,这可能激起了投资者的兴趣。在评估内幕交易时,了解内部人士是否在买入通常比知道他们是否在卖出更有益,因为后者可能有多种解释。但是,如果有许多内部人士出售,股东应该进行更多调查。
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.
尽管在长期投资中,内幕交易并不是最重要的事情,但我们认为完全忽视内幕交易是愚蠢的。
VeriSign Insider Transactions Over The Last Year
去年的威瑞信内幕交易
The Executive Chairman, D. Bidzos, made the biggest insider sale in the last 12 months. That single transaction was for US$3.2m worth of shares at a price of US$220 each. While insider selling is a negative, to us, it is more negative if the shares are sold at a lower price. The good news is that this large sale was at well above current price of US$181. So it may not shed much light on insider confidence at current levels.
执行主席D. Bidzos进行了过去12个月中最大规模的内幕出售。这笔单笔交易是价值320万美元的股票,每股价格为220美元。尽管内幕抛售是负面的,但对我们来说,如果以较低的价格出售股票,则负面影响更大。好消息是,此次大宗销售远高于当前的181美元价格。因此,在当前水平上,这可能无法为内部信心提供太多启示。

威瑞信内部人士最近出售了股票
Over the last three months, we've seen significant insider selling at VeriSign. Specifically, insiders ditched US$1.7m worth of shares in that time, and we didn't record any purchases whatsoever. This may suggest that some insiders think that the shares are not cheap.
在过去的三个月中,我们看到VeriSign进行了大量的内幕销售。具体而言,内部人士在那段时间抛售了价值170万美元的股票,我们没有记录任何购买记录。这可能表明一些内部人士认为股票并不便宜。
Insider Ownership
内部所有权
I like to look at how many shares insiders own in a company, to help inform my view of how aligned they are with insiders. A high insider ownership often makes company leadership more mindful of shareholder interests. It's great to see that VeriSign insiders own 0.9% of the company, worth about US$157m. Most shareholders would be happy to see this sort of insider ownership, since it suggests that management incentives are well aligned with other shareholders.
我喜欢看看内部人士在一家公司拥有多少股票,以帮助我了解他们与内部人士的看法。较高的内部所有权通常会使公司领导层更加关注股东的利益。很高兴看到威瑞信内部人士拥有该公司0.9%的股份,价值约1.57亿美元。大多数股东会很高兴看到这种内部所有权,因为这表明管理层的激励措施与其他股东非常一致。
