💰 Previous Winner

NextNav ($NN) was the top purchase highlighted in the March 21st CEO Watcher Premium (20% discount with that link) email because of the insider’s insane returns. It basically went up and to the right for the following 6 weeks and topped out at +70% returns in 6 weeks. Even with the recent dip, it is still up 50% in just 2 months.

💰 The 20% gain you missed this week

In Tuesday’s CEO Watcher Premium email (20% discount with that link), I shared $LMB as the top insider purchase because the CEO with amazing returns bought $100k of the stock. The stock was only $48.50 when the email was sent and is now already over $58 (+20% in less than a week).

Insider trades crush the market and if you aren’t getting the daily CEO Watcher Premium emails, you are missing out.
