Why are expensive stocks worth considering? High-priced stocks are often perceived as more reliable long-term investments due to the belief that their higher price reflects a history of strong performance and lower volatility. While in investing there is not a single rule that guarantees results, taking more factors into account, such as price, insider trading activity, recent results, analyst coverage, and recent company moves and strategies, might help.
Both insider selling and buying can be driven by various motives that's why it is important to consider these moves within the broader context of the company's fundamentals, industry trends, and overall market conditions. Due diligence before any investment is of crucial importance. However, insider trading activity, combined with other relevant factors, can provide valuable insights into a company's capabilities, helping investors make more informed decisions.
