This Rosslyn Data Technologies Insider Increased Their Holding By 958% Last Year
From what we can see, insiders were net buyers in Rosslyn Data Technologies plc's (LON:RDT ) during the past 12 months. That is, insiders acquired the stock in greater numbers than they sold it.
While insider transactions are not the most important thing when it comes to long-term investing, we would consider it foolish to ignore insider transactions altogether.
We've found 21 US stocks that are forecast to pay a dividend yield of over 6% next year. See the full list for free.
The Independent Non-Executive Chairman James Appleby made the biggest insider purchase in the last 12 months. That single transaction was for UK£264k worth of shares at a price of UK£0.05 each. That means that an insider was happy to buy shares at above the current price of UK£0.037. While their view may have changed since the purchase was made, this does at least suggest they have had confidence in the company's future. In our view, the price an insider pays for shares is very important. Generally speaking, it catches our eye when an insider has purchased shares at above current prices, as it suggests they believed the shares were worth buying, even at a higher price. The only individual insider to buy over the last year was James Appleby.

We do note, however, it is possible insiders have an indirect interest through a private company or other corporate structure.

Trump Deals Poised to Fall Short of Sweeping Global Trade Reform
With just 10 days to go until President Donald Trump's country-specific tariffs are set to resume, the White House appears poised to fall short of the sweeping global trade reforms it promised to achieve during the three months they were on hold. Agreements with as many as a dozen of the US's largest trading partners are expected to be completed by the July 9 deadline, top Trump advisers said this week. But if Trump's only two other accords, with China and the UK, offer any indication, the pacts likely won't be fulsome deals that resolve core issues, but instead will address a limited set of topics and leave many specifics to be negotiated later.

Should You Buy Lucid Stock While It's Below $3?
The electric vehicle industry is facing significant headwinds right now. Lucid's vehicles are expensive, and leadership stability is a big question mark. It's best to take a wait-and-see approach to Lucid stock rather than buying. 10 stocks we like better than Lucid Group › The electric vehicle industry is enticing because, despite some setbacks, many countries and customers around the world are shifting their attention to EVs. The gains in EV adoption are often attributed to both consumer interest and government incentives that spur industry growth. The result is that in 2024, there were 1.3 million EVs sold, an increase of 7% compared to the previous year. Still, it's not all sunshine and rainbows in the EV industry. The high cost of electric vehicles and lagging EV infrastructure are cited by consumers as a significant barrier to buying an electric vehicle. Lucid (NASDAQ: LCID) knows the struggle of getting EVs off the ground in the U.S. just as well as anyone. After years of slower-than-expected production and several changes in leadership, Lucid stock has plummeted. Shares are down about 50% from their 52-week high, putting its share price under $3 right now. With the steep decline, is now a good time to buy Lucid stock at a discount? I think investors are better off waiting to see how things shake out for the company. Here's why it's better not to buy Lucid right now. Having a long-term perspective about the stocks you own is an important investment strategy, which is why it's troubling to see the U.S. backing away from some of its EV infrastructure investments and incentives. First, the Trump administration has thrown cold water on the idea of keeping tax incentives for buying electric vehicles. The incentives were worth up to $7,500 for new vehicles, and while Lucid didn't qualify for them -- its EVs are too expensive -- the incentives still acted as a catalyst to boost the broader EV industry. With those going away, there's less incentive for buyers to purchase EVs and less incentive for automakers to make bold transitions to electrified models. Additionally, the administration has walked back the government's previous commitment to invest billions of dollars in EV charging infrastructure. A legal battle over the funding is underway, but if the administration gets its way, states may not receive the $5 billion in funding to build EV chargers across the country. Broad EV market conditions matter to Lucid because it's still a fledgling EV brand. In order to succeed, Lucid and its peers need high demand for their vehicles and a larger EV charging infrastructure in place. Unfortunately, that now looks less likely over the next few years. Of course, not all of Lucid's problems stem from outside forces. One problem Lucid is currently facing is that its vehicles are just too dang expensive for many American buyers. That's not only hurting Lucid's ability to expand its customer base, but it's also hurting its ability to scale its manufacturing more efficiently. To make a profit in the auto industry, companies need to have economies of scale for their product lineups, sharing components across many vehicles. Lucid's cheapest Air sedan starts at nearly $70,000, and its Gravity SUV starts at about $80,000. The Gravity is still in low production, so any cost savings by sharing parts haven't had time to kick in yet. More importantly, the Air and Gravity starting prices are expensive by even EV standards. The average transaction price for an EV in the U.S. in May was about $57,700. That makes the cheapest Air model 21% above the average EV price, and the Gravity 39% more expensive than the average. Lucid is expected to launch its Earth EV, priced around $48,000, in 2027 or 2028. This will eventually help Lucid to achieve more efficient production costs and potentially widen its customer base, but how well the company will be able to deliver on this and when the Earth actually goes on sale are big unknowns. It was just four months ago that Peter Rawlinson stepped down from the CEO position at Lucid. The company's COO, Marc Winterhoff, is now the interim CEO as the board searches for a permanent leader. While it may have been the right move for Lucid to look for new leadership, the fact that the company is still in the process of finding a permanent replacement at such a difficult time for Lucid means investors should probably be cautious about jumping in with Lucid right now. Leadership change can be normal, but Lucid is currently on its third CEO -- two permanent and one interim -- since 2019. I'd like to see more stability in the C-suite before I feel comfortable that Lucid is on the right track and able to deliver on its EV ambitions. I'm rooting for Lucid just as I am for many EV companies, but that doesn't mean I'd feel comfortable buying its stock right now. For all the reasons above, I think it's best to take a wait-and-see approach with Lucid before buying shares.

Where Will Brookfield Asset Management Be in 10 Years?
Brookfield Asset Management just upped its dividend by 15%. The Canadian asset manager believes it can continue to grow the dividend by 15% through 2030. What happens if that dividend growth rate is cut in half between 2030 and 2035? 10 stocks we like better than Brookfield Asset Management › Brookfield Asset Management (NYSE: BAM) is an attractive dividend growth stock. You could also look at it as a desirable growth and income stock. The two stats backing that up are the above-market 3.1% yield and the huge 15% annual dividend growth rate that management is projecting out to the end of of the decade. What does that mean for investors? And what happens after 2030? Before looking at the dividend growth opportunity with Brookfield Asset Management, it is important to understand what the company does. It is a large Canadian asset manager with a historical focus on infrastructure. It has long invested on a global scale, as well, so it has a very broad investment universe. In recent years it has expanded the universe, too, adding a bond specialist to the mix and broadening its efforts in private equity. Brookfield Asset Management operates across five different platforms: renewable power, infrastructure, real estate, credit, and private equity. It believes it is positioned to benefit in all of these business lines from key long-term trends, including the shift toward clean energy, the world becoming increasingly digital, and de-globalization. The goal is to increase the fee-bearing assets it manages from $550 billion to $1.1 trillion by the end of the decade. As an asset manager, Brookfield Asset Management charges fees for managing other people's money. So growing fee-bearing assets will lead to higher revenues and earnings. If it hits its current targets, the company believes it can grow the dividend 15% a year through the end of 2030. Assuming Brookfield Asset Management can live up to its dividend growth goal, which is not unreasonable, the dividend will grow from about $0.44 per share per quarter to $0.88. If the stock price remains the same in 2030 as it is today, the dividend yield would increase from 3.1% to 6.3%. If, as is more likely, the stock price increases as the dividend grows, the stock will rise from around $56 per share to $112 if the yield remains at the 3.1% level. But, in the price increase example, the yield on purchase price for an investor buying today would still be 6.3%! That's great and should interest dividend growth as well as growth and income investors. But what happens over the five years after that? If the company can keep growing the dividend by 15%, which would be a very tall order, the dividend in 2035 would be $1.77 per share per quarter. That would suggest a yield on purchase price of 12.6% and a stock price of $224 per share if the market continued to afford the stock a 3.1% yield. Wow! However, 15% dividend growth for a decade is a pretty aggressive expectation. What if the dividend growth is just half that rate after the first five years, slowing to 7.5% a year between 2031 and 2035? In that case the dividend will grow to $1.26 per share per quarter and the yield on purchase price would fall to "only" 9%. If the stock is still yielding 3.1% in 2035, the stock price based on the higher dividend would be around $160 per share. So it is still a very attractive outcome even if Brookfield Asset Management's growth slows materially in the back half of this 10-year outlook. These are just estimates played out using a spreadsheet. Real life is always more complicated. Brookfield Asset Management's future is highly dependent on its ability to execute and, frankly, the ups and downs of Wall Street. However, if Brookfield Asset Management can live up to its lofty goals over the next five years, it is a very attractive dividend growth/growth and income stock today. And if it can do half as well over the five years after 2030 it will still be an attractive investment over that 10-year horizon.
