☆ Jamie Dimon's stock-moving trades show why investors should track CEOs' buying and selling
▼ + stars: | 2023-10-28 | by ( Kevin Stankiewicz | In Kevinstankiewicz | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +24 min

While executive stock sales — such as Dimon's planned transactions next year — are not universally red flags, they can get complicated. Insider stock sales Executive stock trades are usually disclosed through SEC filings known as Form 4 documents and accessible through the regulator's EDGAR database — the electronic data gathering, analysis, and retrieval system. Rule 10b5-1 trading plans came into the fold just over two decades ago to reconcile these two discordant facts. Adopting Rule 10b5-1 trading plans gives public-company executives a way to protect against allegations of illegal insider trading in the future. Compared with a tiny stock sale executed through a predetermined plan, executive stock buys generally send a much stronger signal: The executive wants to make money, too.

Monday Monday proved to be a harbinger for the rest of the week, beginning with purchases of GE Healthcare (GEHC) and Stanley Black & Decker (SWK). GE Healthcare and Stanley Black & Decker appeared especially attractive, leading us to buy 100 shares and 150 shares, respectively. For GEHC, we wanted to take advantage of what we believe was an unwarranted decline in the medical technology company's stock price. Our purchase of Starbucks represents another buying-into-post-earnings-weakness situation, as we did with Microsoft and Stanley Black & Decker earlier in the week. That's why on Thursday we took our Nvidia price target to $600 per share from $450, implying roughly 27% upside.

The Foot Locker store in Broomfield, Colorado is seen on November 17, 2016. The athletic-wear retailer also missed expectations for quarterly sales, said it would pause its dividend payouts and flagged softer demand in July, which is typically when back-to-school shopping starts. The shares of the company's larger rivals Nike (NKE.N), Dick's Sporting Goods (DKS.N) and Under Armour fell between 2% and 4% in premarket trade. Foot Locker's warnings kept the pressure on sportswear retailers after they tumbled on Tuesday when Dick's Sporting Goods also cut its full-year profit targets, slammed by hits to its margins from retail theft. Foot Locker also said its quarter was hit by inventory shrink, or retail theft, and steeper discounts.

The dismal quarter prompted Foot Locker to lower its forecast again – just five months after introducing it. Those heavy markdowns have weighed on Foot Locker's margins, which dropped 4.6 percentage points compared with the year-ago period. Shrink, a retail industry term that refers to merchandise lost by theft, damage or other means, also weighed on profits, Foot Locker said. It didn't disclose how much shrink cut into its margins compared with promotions. But Foot Locker has been trying to reduce its reliance on Nike and balance its vendor mix.
