Top CEO Trades of the Week

Reminder: you can read about how CEO Watcher works and how we calculate returns and win rates here

Gerald Plush - President and CEO at (link)

The stock is down over 30% in the last two months due to the bank crash and Gerald just made his second-largest purchase ever and first purchase since mid-2022. His overall returns arenโ€™t good at all (mainly because he made a handful of purchases in 2021 that are now underwater), but his 90-day and 1-year returns are awesome.

Returns and Win Rate

Overall: 4% returns with a 25% win rate (2/8 trades)

1-year: 92% returns with an 86% win rate (6/7 trades)

90-day: 25% returns with a 100% win rate (8/8 trades)

Purchase Data (this week)

Total Amount Purchased: $45,422

Purchase Price: $18.17

Current Price: $18.68 (+3%)

Rating: 7

Why: His purchase size isnโ€™t massive, but it is the second largest purchase he has ever made and came after a big stock crash. The stock has been flattening out over the last week, so he may believe itโ€™s time for a rebound. His low overall returns and relatively small purchase amount keep this from being higher, but still pretty compelling.

Jeff Dick - President and CEO at (link)

Another bank President and CEO buying up their stock after a 30% dip. His returns arenโ€™t as good as Gerald (above) and he doesnโ€™t have as much history, but this is his largest purchase (almost 20x bigger than any others)

Returns and Win Rate

Overall: 2% returns with a 16% win rate (1/6 trades)

1-year: 42% returns with a 100% win rate (2/2 trades)

90-day: 5% returns with an 80% win rate (4/5 trades)

Purchase Data (this week)

Total Amount Purchased: $245,514

Purchase Price: $21.50

Current Price: $21.45 (+0%)

Rating

Rating: 7

Why: His returns and history arenโ€™t as good as Geraldโ€™s, but this was his biggest purchase by a mile and was made after a big dip in the stock price.

Thurman Rodgers - Director at (link)

Thurman just made his first two purchases of Enphase Energy and they are pretty massive. He has made a handful of purchases of other companies where he is a director and he has some decent returns on those.

Returns and Win Rate

Overall: 5% returns with a 68% win rate (13/19 trades)

1-year: 37% returns with a 25% win rate (1/4 trades)

90-day: 131% returns with an 57% win rate (4/7 trades)

Purchase Data (this week)

Total Amount Purchased: $10,059,380

Purchase Price: $165.32

Current Price: $162.21 (-2%)

Rating

Rating: 6

Why: This is the first time he has ever bought Enphase, so we donโ€™t have any history on him buying this stock. However, the purchase is massive (itโ€™s the biggest insider purchase this week), the stock is down 45% in the last 6 months and 30% in the last week due to terrible earnings, and he has decent returns (though they are very high risk, high reward).
