Insider Weekends ¨C November 4, 2011

Welcome to edition seventy four of Insider Weekends. Insider buying increased with insiders purchasing $38.1 million of their stock last week compared to $22.2 million in the week prior. Selling also increased with insiders selling $1.4 billion worth of stock compared to $987.1 million in the week prior.

Sell/Buy Ratio: The insider Sell/Buy ratio is calculated by dividing the total insider sales in a given week by total insider purchases that week. The adjusted ratio for last week dropped down to 37.1. In other words, insiders sold more than 37 times as much stock as they purchased. The Sell/Buy ratio this week compares favorably with the week prior when the ratio stood at 44.4. We are calculating an adjusted ratio by removing transactions by funds and companies and trying as best as possible only to retain information about insiders and 10% owners who are not funds or companies.
