Every time a corporate insider buys or sells their own company's stock, a public document gets filed within two business days. It's free. It's on the SEC website. And almost no retail investor reads it.
It's called a Form Four, and it might be the single most honest filing in the entire system. Earnings calls and press releases are built to shape what you think. A Form Four is just a record of what the people running the company did with their own money.
In episode 5 of Watchlist Wire, host Atlas and co-host Michael walk through what these filings are, why insider buying is always a louder signal than insider selling, and the heart of the episode: how to lay insider behavior over the dilution, toxic convertibles, and reverse splits from the previous episodes to tell a paper warning sign from a confirmed one.
No stock tips. No hype. No promises about getting rich. Just the most underused free signal in public company disclosure, and how to read it against everything that came before.
Next week: the going concern warning. The audit paragraph that signals existential risk, and where to find it in any annual report.
