As we move into the New Year, it is a good time to revisit what we do and do not know about insider trading.
We know that corporate officers&#8217; and directors&#8217; trading has to be revealed to the public via a filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
We know that, in most cases, insider buying is far more informative than insider selling. Most insider selling reveals very little real information, as there are dozens of reasons for insiders to be cashing in stocks, most of which have little to do with business prospects.
The exception to this rule is when we see clusters of insiders or large sales by top executives at or near 52-week lows. This always needs to be investigated, as the odds of several executives having a personal cash need when the stock is in a downtrend are pretty slim.
We know that insiders buy stocks for only one reason: they believe the stock price will go higher based on what they know about the business.
They are not as concerned with profits measured in percentages as they are with profits measured in multiples of the stock price.
Most of the time, insiders are contrarian and value-oriented when buying shares. Clusters of large insider buys often indicate a stock is getting near the lows and is ripe for a turnaround.
When we see insiders go against that habit and buy near 52-week highs, it is very informative and indicates that nonpublic knowledge will lead to higher prices sooner rather than later.
The top executives earn higher excess returns on their purchases than directors and low-level executives. Most of the time, the CEO and CFO have the highest returns.
&nbsp;That makes sense since they see more of the big picture than anyone else. Most of the time, they are the ones painting the picture.
The CFO tends to earn higher returns than the CEO. That also makes sense since they understand both the picture and vision and what that means for the financial statements.
These are not opinions.
These are facts and conclusions drawn from academic studies and real-world results.
We will look for opportunities created by all these rules as we go through 2025.
Since today is the first trading day of 2025, I thought we would take a look at some stocks where the CEO or CFO was making large purchases of stocks that Wall Street hates. Big money buying in the open market often indicates that hatred is misplaced.
Take Tidewater (Ticker: TDW), for example. Tidewater owns and operates a substantial fleet of offshore vessels, providing logistical support, crew transportation, and equipment delivery to offshore rigs, platforms, and facilities. They own the boats that take people, tools, and supplies to offshore drilling rigs worldwide.
It has not been a great business for several years now. Oil and gas prices have been in a range for some time now. Prices supported onshore activity, but offshore activity has been moribund. Politics and misguided energy policies have played a role in creating weakness in the industry as well.
Shares of Tidewater hit a high of $110 back in mid-year and have plunged by more than 50% since. There have been signs that offshore demand is picking up, and key executives at Tidewater apparently think the worst is over.
CEO Quintin Kneen spent almost $2 million on shares last month. Well-known value investor Robert Robotti is a large shareholder and director and has also been buying. Robotti purchased another million shares of stock last month.
Any increased offshore oil and gas activity will send this stock skyrocketing toward its 52-week highs. Any news that causes a spike in oil and gas demand or pricing could easily make Tidewater one of the top-performing stocks of 2025.
Shares of Dave &amp; Buster&#8217;s Entertainment (Ticker: PLAY) have not been very entertaining lately. The company has been losing far more than analysts expected, and after the last quarter&#8217;s report, the CEO resigned. Wall Street hates the stock, and traders have been dumping it. Dave &amp; Buster&#8217;s shares are now down almost 60% from the 52-week highs.
Chairman of the board Kevin Sheehan has stepped in as interim CEO. Upon taking the role, Mr. Sheehan must have liked what he saw amidst the carnage as he broke out his checkbook and purchased another $1.4 million worth of stock. Two other directors also made six-figure open-market purchases of the stock.
The board of directors feels pretty good about the future, as it authorized a new $100 million stock buyback to take advantage of the bargain pricing. Almost 20% of the float is sold short, so any good news could squeeze the shares.
Insiders are not always right about their purchases, but they are right more often than not, and the rewards can be spectacular.

<h3>The Relevance of Insider Transactions</h3>
Insider transactions, although significant, should be considered within the larger context of market analysis and trends.
In legal terms, an "insider" refers to any officer, director, or beneficial owner of more than ten percent of a company's equity securities registered under Section 12 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. This can include executives in the c-suite and large hedge funds. These insiders are required to let the public know of their transactions via a Form 4 filing, which must be filed within two business days of the transaction.
When a company insider makes a new purchase, that is an indication that they expect the stock to rise.
Insider sells, on the other hand, can be made for a variety of reasons, and may not necessarily mean that the seller thinks the stock will go down. 
<h3>Essential Transaction Codes Unveiled</h3>
Surveying the realm of stock transactions, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/investing-tools">investors</a> often give prominence to those unfolding in the open market, systematically detailed in Table I of the Form 4 filing. A P in Box 3 indicates a purchase, while S signifies a sale. Transaction code C denotes the conversion of an option, and transaction code A denotes a grant, award, or other acquisition of securities from the company.

Spotlight on Dave & Buster's Enter: Analyzing the Surge in Options Activity

Shares of Dave &amp; Buster&#8217;s Entertainment Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PLAY#NASDAQ">PLAY</a>) fell over 14% at last check Wednesday, despite reporting <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/12/42437664/why-dave-busters-entertainment-stock-is-tumbling-wednesday">downbeat third-quarter results</a>.
<ul>
<li>Truist Securities <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-stock-ratings/analyst/589dc33d43eaaa000122c591/jake-bartlett">analyst Jake Bartlett</a> downgraded the rating from Buy to Hold, while slashing the price target from $56 to $36.</li>
<li>Benchmark <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-stock-ratings/analyst/5935519f85b07a0001c0bc58/mike-hickey">analyst Mike Hickey</a> maintained a Hold rating on the stock.</li>
</ul>
Check out <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-stock-ratings">other analyst stock ratings</a>.
Truist Securities: Dave &amp; Buster&#8217;s reported its adjusted EBITDA at $68.3 million. That&#8217;s short of the consensus of $75.8 million. Same-store sales and store-level margins drove the shortfall, Bartlett said. Consolidated same-store sales fell by 7.7%, much worse than consensus of a 5.9% decline, while store-level margins contracted by 160 basis points, he added.
This was the seventh consecutive quarterly sales miss, the analyst stated. The unexpected resignation of CEO Chris Morris, who had devised the turnaround plan, added to the uncertainty around its execution, he noted.
The CEO departure, along with disappointing sales lifts from recent remodels, "shakes our confidence in PLAY&#8217;s sales catalysts," Bartlett further wrote.
Benchmark: Dave &amp; Buster&#8217;s reported disappointing third-quarter results due to challenging macro conditions, "growing pains" from some of the strategic initiatives, and slightly longer-than-expected implementation for some initiatives, Hickey said in a note. Management expressed their frustration around the strategic initiatives not yielding the desired results due to the macro environment, he added.
"The departure of CEO Chris Morris adds an additional friction to executing the second half of PLAY's strategic plan," as he was the "primary architect" of the plan that was launched around 18 months ago, the analyst wrote. Management guided to full year adjusted EBITDA of $500 million to $515 million, below the consensus estimate of $525 million, he further stated.
Price Action: Shares of Dave &amp; Buster&#8217;s declined by 14.04% to $31.64 at the time of publication on Wednesday.

The company also announced that CEO&nbsp;Chris Morris&nbsp;resigned to pursue other interests.&nbsp;The board noted that it has been working with a global executive search firm in recent months to assist in identifying the company's next permanent CEO.
Board chair&nbsp;Kevin Sheehan&nbsp;will serve as interim CEO. The board has also appointed director&nbsp;James Chambers&nbsp;as vice chair of the board. During the transition period, director&nbsp;Michael Griffith&nbsp;will temporarily assume the role of lead independent director.
&#8220;The Board worked closely with Chris to create our company&#8217;s strategic direction and has the utmost confidence in this management team and the company&#8217;s strategy.
