Yahoo Finance ReNeuron Group Slides As Insider Purchases Lose Another UK£75k \
Insiders who acquired UK£119k worth of ReNeuron Group plc's (LON:RENE) stock at an average price of UK£0.18 in the past 12 months may be dismayed by the recent 13% price decline. Insiders invest with the hopes of seeing their money grow in value over time. However, as a result of recent losses, their initial investment is now only worth UK£44k, which is not what they expected.
While insider transactions are not the most important thing when it comes to long-term investing, we do think it is perfectly logical to keep tabs on what insiders are doing.
