7 insiders independently bought a net $29.2M while the stock fell 18% over six months, with no planned sales queued.
What changed in the last 30 days
Oct 27Insider buying stopped: no purchases in 90 days after 10 in the prior 90
Why it matters
The absence is the signal: 10 purchases in one 90-day window and none in the next is a change of behaviour, not a filing.
