Insiders of Intense Technologies Limited (NSE:INTENTECH) forfeit last week's 11% gains after selling stock earlier this year

Despite a 11% gain in Intense Technologies Limited's (NSE:INTENTECH) stock price this week, shareholders shouldn't let up. In spite of the relatively cheap prices, insiders made the decision to sell ₹2.6m worth of stock in the last 12 months. This could be a warning indicator of vulnerabilities in the future.

While we would never suggest that investors should base their decisions solely on what the directors of a company have been doing, we do think it is perfectly logical to keep tabs on what insiders are doing.
