Top insider trades (week of Apr 20)

How CEO Watcher Works

Welcome to this week’s edition of CEO Watcher. This is the only tool that tracks the returns of insiders so we know which insider trades are worth copying.

This week we found:

• $LGVN popped 75% in two days after I shared it in Monday’s CEO Watcher Premium email

• CEO at $WDFC with 34% 1y returns bought the stock

• and more…

Have a great weekend and thanks for reading!

💰 Previous Winner

This was one of our fastest winners ever after it popped 75% in just two days. I shared this as the Top Purchase in Monday’s CEO Watcher Premium email and it opened Monday at $2.39 before topping out at $4.18 at 2:50pm on Wednesday for a 75% gain in less than two days.

*The stock then got sold off hard after the market closed on Wednesday, but a 75% pop in two days is a huge win (as long as you took profits along the way and had proper risk management).

Upgrade to CEO Watcher Premium (20% off with this link) to get all of the top insider trades as soon as they happen instead of just receiving 3 on the weekend.
