That's a big disposal, and it decreased their holding size by 18%, which is notable but not too bad. Trump has pledged to "unleash" American oil and gas and these 15 US stocks have developments that are poised to benefit. ## The Last 12 Months Of Insider Transactions At Cipher Digital Notably, that recent sale by Independent Director Wesley Williams was not the only time they sold Cipher Digital shares this year. Earlier in the year, they fetched US$16.08 per share in a -US$802k sale. That means that even when the share price was below the current price of US$21.24, an insider wanted to cash in some shares. As a general rule we consider it to be discouraging when insiders are selling below the current price, because it suggests they were happy with a lower valuation. However, while insider selling is sometimes discouraging, it's only a weak signal. We note that the biggest single sale was only 24% of Wesley Williams's holding. In the last year Cipher Digital insiders didn't buy any company stock. You can see the insider transactions (by companies and individuals) over the last year depicted in the chart below.
