Stock markets tumbled on Wednesday, with technology shares leading the slide amid growing concerns over ever-changing tariffs. The broader market index dropped 2.2%, the blue-chip companies fell by almost 700 points, a decline of 1.7%, and the Nasdaq Composite —dominated by tech—plunged nearly 3.1%. With this decline, the Nasdaq is now about 19% below its recent peak, edging closer to bear market territory.
Stocks dropped to their lowest levels of the day Wednesday after Fed Chair Jerome Powell warned that the tariffs could increase short-term inflation. He noted the Federal Reserve might face a tough situation where its goals of full employment and stable prices may come into conflict, according to CNBC.
During periods of market and economic uncertainty, insider trading often draws increased interest. Executive stock purchases can suggest confidence in the company’s outlook, while sales may simply reflect personal financial needs or efforts to diversify investments. Many executives use pre-established trading plans, such as 10b5-1 programs, which are designed to remove timing decisions from the equation. To get a clearer picture, insider activity should be evaluated alongside the company’s overall financial health and broader market conditions.
Today, we’re focusing on stocks that have seen heavy insider buying activity in the first quarter of the year. Using Insider Monkey’s insider trading screener, we identified companies with market caps between $2 billion and $10 billion, where at least two insiders purchased shares in the past three months. From this list, we ranked the top 20 stocks with the highest value of insider purchases. Most of the stocks that have been recently covered were excluded from our analysis.
