Monday 10/17 Insider Buying Report: ALNY, RHP Monday, October 17, 10:31 AM ET
Bargain hunters are wise to pay careful attention to insider buying, because although there are many various reasons for an insider to sell a stock, presumably the only reason they would use their hard-earned cash to make a purchase, is that they expect to make money. Today we look at two noteworthy recent insider buys.
On Thursday, Alnylam Pharmaceuticals (ALNY)'s Director, David Pyott, made a $1.03M buy of ALNY, purchasing 27,900 shares at a cost of $37.00 a piece.
