One potential indicator of a stock's future performance is the level of stock that insiders are buying. In this context, an insider is an employee of the company, usually, a high-level executive (e.g. CEO, CFO, COO) or it can be a hedge fund that is providing capital. Their access to non-public information puts more weight on their buying and selling decisions. With that in mind, it's important to note that insiders may sell shares of stock for many reasons. However, they only buy for one reason. That is, they believe that information is going to be released that will boost the stock price in the near future.
