The Last 12 Months Of Insider Transactions At China Risun Group

The CEO & Chairman Xuegang Yang made the biggest insider purchase in the last 12 months. That single transaction was for HK$11m worth of shares at a price of HK$3.71 each. That means that even when the share price was higher than HK$3.02 (the recent price), an insider wanted to purchase shares. Their view may have changed since then, but at least it shows they felt optimistic at the time. In our view, the price an insider pays for shares is very important. As a general rule, we feel more positive about a stock when an insider has bought shares at above current prices, because that suggests they viewed the stock as good value, even at a higher price. The only individual insider to buy over the last year was Xuegang Yang.
