Featured below are companies that have experienced recent insider trading activity in the public market through their direct and indirect ownerships, including accounts they have control or direction over.
The list features insider transaction activity; it does not convey total ownership information as an insider may hold numerous accounts.
Keep in mind, when looking at transaction activities by insiders, purchasing activity may reflect perceived value in a security. Selling activity may or may not be related to a stock's valuation; perhaps an insider needs to raise money for personal reasons. An insider's total holdings should be considered because a sale may, in context, be insignificant if this person has a large remaining position in the company. I tend to put great weight on insider transaction activity when I see multiple insiders trading a company's shares or units.
Listed below are two stocks that have had recent buying activity in the public market reported by insiders.
Morguard Corp. (MRC-T)
On June 3, Bruce Robertson, who sits on the board of directors, bought 12,000 shares at a price per share of $112.91 for an account in which he has indirect ownership (5051326 Ontario Inc.), lifting the holdings in this specific account to 50,000 shares. The cost of this investment exceeded $1.3 million.

He acquired 10,000 shares at a cost per share of $10.28 for an account in which he has indirect ownership (Myrdan Investments Inc.), increasing the holdings in this specific account to 840,000 shares.
