Simply Wall St ·  Sep 21 22:26

Last week, Telomir Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NASDAQ:TELO) insiders, who had purchased shares in the previous 12 months were rewarded handsomely. The shares increased by 29% last week, resulting in a US$52m increase in the company's market worth, implying a 12% gain on their initial purchase. Put another way, the original US$343.0k acquisition is now worth US$384.2k.

While insider transactions are not the most important thing when it comes to long-term investing, we do think it is perfectly logical to keep tabs on what insiders are doing.
