bSell/Buy Ratio: The insider Sell/Buy ratio is calculated by dividing the total insider sales in a given week by total insider purchases that week. The adjusted ratio for last week dropped to 3.74. In other words, insiders sold almost 4 times as much stock as they purchased. The Sell/Buy ratio this week compares favorably with the prior week, when the ratio stood at 6.3.

Mike Burke of Investors Intelligence used to say there was a lag time of some six months between the buy/sell patterns of insiders and how they were reflected in the stock market…but that was long before stock markets became a branch of the federal governments.
