While we would never suggest that investors should base their decisions solely on what the directors of a company have been doing, logic dictates you should pay some attention to whether insiders are buying or selling shares.

The Last 12 Months Of Insider Transactions At 333D

In the last twelve months, the biggest single sale by an insider was when the insider, Geok Lan Ng, sold AU$92k worth of shares at a price of AU$0.007 per share. 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 AU$0.006. So it is hard to draw any strong conclusion from it. Geok Lan Ng was the only individual insider to sell shares in the last twelve months.

Geok Lan Ng sold a total of 22.81m shares over the year at an average price of AU$0.0064. The chart below shows insider transactions (by companies and individuals) over the last year. If you want to know exactly who sold, for how much, and when, simply click on the graph below!
