Many entrepreneurs dream of solving a problem, building a business and taking it public. Once individuals reach that point, public company employees must report on both the purchase and sale of their company shares - this information can be used by retail investors to get a feel for company sentiment and help solidify their investment decisions.

Mission Critical Datasets
There are traders who have made a living off of insider trading information. Help provide an edge to your users by letting them know if employees are loading up on, or dumping, their own company shares.
SEC form 4 filings have made it easy to see into the minds of officers, directors, and shareholders with greater than 10% in a company that are trading based on information that is disclosed to the public, but may not be widely distributed. Many times these insiders have a special awareness of a company’s outlook.
Many traders would prefer to see what the high level insiders are doing with their stocks, rather than scour press releases and make interpretations about a company’s future. Use Benzinga insider trading data to supplement your due diligence.
Massive brokerages like TradeZero have integrated our Insider Trades data to help users understand what is going on under the hood at the worlds most actively traded companies!
