Simply Wall St · 5d ago

Insiders who bought Ballymore Resources Limited (ASX:BMR) in the last 12 months may probably not pay attention to the stock's recent 10% drop. After accounting for the recent loss, the AU$100.0k worth of shares they purchased is now worth AU$206.7k, suggesting a good return on their investment.

While we would never suggest that investors should base their decisions solely on what the directors of a company have been doing, we do think it is perfectly logical to keep tabs on what insiders are doing.
