MTDR has been the most purchased stock by Top Insiders in the last 30 days (by a lot) as insiders were buying the dip hand over fist. The average return for the MTDR pitches in these emails is 6%, but a handful are up nearly 15%.

It’s currently up over 16% from the bottom of the dip and insiders stopped buying when the stock started to recover.
