Several Insiders Invested In Bolt Projects Holdings Flagging Positive News
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.
Check out our latest analysis for Bolt Projects Holdings
In the last twelve months, the biggest single purchase by an insider was when Independent Director Jeri Finard bought US$60k worth of shares at a price of US$0.34 per share. So it's clear an insider wanted to buy, even at a higher price than the current share price (being US$0.31). 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. As a general rule, we feel more positive about a stock if insiders have bought shares at above current prices, because that suggests they viewed the stock as good value, even at a higher price.

US import prices rebound in July on higher consumer goods costs
WASHINGTON (Reuters) -U.S. import prices rebounded in July, boosted by higher costs for consumer goods, the latest indication that inflation was poised to pick up because of tariffs. Import prices increased 0.4% last month after a downwardly revised 0.1% dip in June, the Labor Department's Bureau of Labor Statistics said on Friday. Economists polled by Reuters had forecast import prices, which exclude tariffs, unchanged after a previously reported 0.1% gain in June. Though import prices do not include tariffs, the elevated readings suggested exporting nations are not cutting prices to offset the impact of higher costs from duties on consumers. In the 12 months through July, import prices slipped 0.2% after falling 0.5% in June. Producer price data on Thursday showed a surge in goods prices excluding the volatile food and energy components, bolstering economists expectations that consumer inflation would accelerate in the months ahead, despite what has so far been a moderate tariff pass-through. Imported fuel prices increased 2.7% in July after rising 0.8% in June. Food prices decreased 0.1% after dropping 1.3% in the prior month. Excluding fuels and food, import prices advanced 0.3%. Core import prices eased 0.1% in June. In the 12 months through July, they increased 0.8%. That partly reflects dollar weakness against the currencies of the United States' main trade partners. The trade-weighted dollar is down about 6.7% this year. Prices for imported consumer goods excluding motor vehicles increased 0.4% last month after edging up 0.1% in June. Imported capital goods prices gained 0.1% while those for motor vehicles, parts and engines decreased 0.2%. Sign in to access your portfolio

Genasys, Inc. Provides Second Update on Puerto Rico Dams Early Warning System Project
SAN DIEGO--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Genasys Inc. (NASDAQ: GNSS), the global leader in Protective Communications, today provided updated information related to the previously announced $75 million contract to provide the Puerto Rico Electric Power Authority (PREPA) with an Emergency Warning System (EWS) to protect residents and visitors downstream of the island's 37 dams. Since our last update in May, significant progress has been made on the project. The full deposit for the third group of dams has been received, and physical construction is underway on 9 of the 19 dams with design approval. Essentially all hardware necessary for the first two groups has been delivered to the island. Based on preliminary projections of percentage-of-completion accounting, Genasys recognized $5.6 million of project related revenue in fiscal 2025 year to date. 'With the third group's deposit fully paid, Genasys is now able to proceed unabated on delivering the EWS to the island, protecting citizens and visitors to Puerto Rico downstream of the first 19 dams,' said Richard Danforth, CEO of Genasys, Inc. The first group of dams is clustered in the hills around San Juan, the capital city of Puerto Rico. This group includes six dams that will require dozens of cameras and sensors to be placed around the dams and then integrated into the Genasys EWS. 50 sites are planned for outdoor speaker and communication arrays. To proceed, some local endorsements need to be secured, and some site locations require additional permitting. Construction is underway on all six dams in the first group, and most of the local endorsements have been secured. All the hardware and equipment necessary to complete this group is on the island or in transit. As a result, the first dam's implementation has been completed with PREPA officials already providing sign off on the dam's system as well as the software that will be utilized across all seven groups. The second group is smaller and includes three dams located above Cayey, Patillas, and Guayama. Designs and permitting on these dams has been managed by PREPA, and EWS construction is underway on all three dam sites. The third group is the largest and most complex of the seven groups in the project. It includes more than 10 dams and will require the installation of 50 outdoor speaker arrays and over 100 sensors and cameras. Permitting and local endorsements are actively being pursued. With the deposit received, final procurement and manufacturing of materials can be completed. EWS construction on the third group of dams is expected to begin later this month. This update has been provided with the intent of informing investors of the progress of this significant contract, though no obligation or commitment to further update progress exists.
