As global markets navigate a choppy start to 2025, characterized by inflation concerns and political uncertainties, investors are keenly observing the impact of economic data on stock performance. In such a volatile environment, growth companies with high insider ownership can be particularly appealing due to the potential alignment of interests between insiders and shareholders.
