Eaton Insiders Sell US$4.2m Of Stock, Possibly Signalling Caution
Eaton Insiders Sell US$4.2m Of Stock, Possibly Signalling Caution
Many Eaton Corporation plc (NYSE:ETN) insiders ditched their stock over the past year, which may be of interest to the company's shareholders. When evaluating insider transactions, knowing whether insiders are buying is usually more beneficial than knowing whether they are selling, as the latter can be open to many interpretations. However, shareholders should take a deeper look if several insiders are selling stock over a specific time period.
在過去的一年中,很多 Eaton Corporation plc (NYSE:ETN) 的內部人士紛紛出售自己的股票,這可能會引起公司股東的關注。檢查內部人士的交易時,了解他們是否在購買股票通常比了解他們是否在出售更有益,因爲後者可能會有多重解讀。然而,如果幾個內部人士在特定時間段內出售股票,股東們應該深入了解。
Although we don't think shareholders should simply follow insider transactions, logic dictates you should pay some attention to whether insiders are buying or selling shares.
雖然我們認爲股東不應僅僅跟隨內部人士的交易,但邏輯告訴我們,應該注意內部人士是購買還是出售股票。
The Last 12 Months Of Insider Transactions At Eaton
Eaton 在過去的 12 個月內的內部交易
In the last twelve months, the biggest single sale by an insider was when the Executive VP & CFO, Olivier Leonetti, sold US$1.2m worth of shares at a price of US$272 per share. That means that even when the share price was below the current price of US$295, an insider wanted to cash in some shares. As a general rule we consider it to be discouraging when insiders are selling below the current price, because it suggests they were happy with a lower valuation. However, while insider selling is sometimes discouraging, it's only a weak signal. We note that the biggest single sale was 88% of Olivier Leonetti's holding.
在過去的 12 個月內,執行副總裁兼首席財務官奧利維爾·萊昂內蒂(Olivier Leonetti)出售價值 120 萬美元的股票,每股價格爲 272 美元,這是內部人士中最大規模的單筆出售。這意味着即使股價低於目前的 295 美元,內部人士也想賣出一些股票。一般來說,如果內部人士在當前價位下出售股票,我們認爲這是令人沮喪的,因爲它表明他們對低估值感到滿意。然而,雖然內部人士的出售有時是令人沮喪的,但僅僅是一個微弱的信號。我們注意到最大規模的單筆出售佔了奧利維爾·萊昂內蒂持有股份的 88%。
