China Renaissance Holdings Insiders Made A Wise Decision By Selling CN¥7.5m Worth Of Stock

Simply Wall St · 4d ago

While China Renaissance Holdings Limited (HKG:1911) shareholders have enjoyed a good week with stock up 14%, they need remain vigilant. The fact that insiders chose to dispose of CN¥7.5m worth of stock in the past 12 months even though prices were relatively low could be indicative of some anticipated weakness.

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.

The Last 12 Months Of Insider Transactions At China Renaissance Holdings

The insider, Fan Bao, made the biggest insider sale in the last 12 months. That single transaction was for HK$7.5m worth of shares at a price of HK$4.24 each. That means that an insider was selling shares at slightly below the current price (HK$4.70). When an insider sells below the current price, it suggests that they considered that lower price to be fair. That makes us wonder what they think of the (higher) recent valuation. However, while insider selling is sometimes discouraging, it's only a weak signal. We note that the biggest single sale was only 7.3% of Fan Bao's holding. Fan Bao was the only individual insider to sell over the last year.
