What this means

The recent purchase by top insiders of the bank could portray an optimistic outlook on the bank’s profit in the near future.

Also, the surge might also be attributed to a recent disclosure by the bank that it will close the window for internal purchase of its shares by December 1, 2020, until 24 hours after the release of its audited financials.

    Is this transactions not fraudulent? Undue advantage is always being exploited by fund managers. How can we be above board when occupying responsible positions.
