As the saying goes, there are many possible reasons for an insider to sell a stock, but only one reason to buy -- they expect to make money. So let's look at two noteworthy recent insider buys.
At Community Bancorp, a filing with the SEC revealed that on Monday, President of Company & Bank Christopher L. Caldwell purchased 1,000 shares of CMTV, at a cost of $35.30 each, for a total investment of $35,299.
