INSIDER SELLING IS RAMPANT
This truth runs like a thread throughout all our analysis.
There's a lot to read here, because there are so many examples
and
because we want to level Wall Street's playing field to your advantage.
Read
and think about what we say. No need to read it all at once.
Mull
what we say over and get back to us with your questions.
We think this concept and our practical measures for identifying
insider trading are the most important keys to your making big money in stocks
that
you will ever find... Certainly we have found nothing better since
1967,
when the author first began reading about the stock market
in
the library of Columbia University's Business School..

Question: What if You Could Know
What Insiders
Are Doing with Your Stocks?
Answer: You'd Make A Lot More Money, for one thing.
And You'd Sleep A Lot Better, for Another.
Question: How would I make more money?
Answer: First, you could sell at the top, like some of
the biggest bankers did in 2007, long before
the Market Collapses.
There many examples
of this, but crystal clear are the cases of
WAMU's Killington and Rubin of CitiGroup. See also the Blog
I wrote in late 2007, long before these stocks totally collapsed.
December 30, 2007 Insider
Selling at Washington Mutual and CitiGroup
Should
Make Shareholders "Mad as Hell".
It predicted WAMU's bankruptcy and exposed Killington's
insider selling, based on how extensive the insider selling was.
The TigerSoft chart below shows you exactly what to look for.
TigerSoft Rules Are Simple:
>>>Intensive Negative (Red) Distribution in Tiger's Invention,
the Tiger Accumulation Index, Means Insider Selling
>>>The steady red AI readings show heavy Institutional Selling.

Question:
How would I make more money?
Answer: Second, you could avoid buying on
the
way
down to 0, because you would see
that
institutions and other official insiders
are
dumping their shares, too, in a way that
has
been proven to be very dangerous year
after
year, in 1000s of earlier and similar stocks.
Again, Apply The Simple
TigerSoft Rules:
>>>Intensive Negative (Red) Distribution in Tiger's Invention,
the Tiger Accumulation Index, Means Insider Selling
>>>The steady red AI readings show heavy Institutional Selling
>>>Sell these stocks short on rallies that fail. Our automatic signals
show you when.
Rubin sold millions of Citigroup stock at it top near 55. As it fell, down,
down, down, it might have looked cheap. But it hit ONE DOLLAR.
It was never cheap enough!. Don't rely on emotional hunches to buy!
Watch the insiders. What what they do
with their own money, not what they
say to the media..
LEH went bankrupt!

Question:
How would I make more money?
Answer: Third, But the
stocks that show
intense
insider buying when our software
produces
automatic Buys.
Even
better, first wait for our Peerless Stock
Market
Timing Software to tell you when it is safe.
Again, Apply The Simple TigerSoft
Rules:
>>>Intensive Positive (Blue) Accumulation in Tiger's Invention,
the Tiger Accumulation Index, Means Insider Buying
>>>The steady blue AI readings show heavy Institutional Buying
Buying with the insiders from March to
July 2009 proved ideal,
just as we predicted it would at the time. Please look at some of the stocks
our software found for customers to buy back then. They were exactly
what we have been looking for since 1990s when we formulated the rules
for the major Buys you see on this chart. Please go to the link below.

WHY TRACK INSIDERS?
Insiders
know their companies better than nearly anyone. We would do well
to watch what they are doing. When you see heavy insider buying as TigerSoft
measures it, do a little "do-diligence" on Yahoo and find out how much they
are buying, etc. Do this especially when emotions are tugging on you to
buy or sell. Your emotions will get you in big trouble in the stock market.
Offical Insiders Buying and Sell is reported on Yahoo, But this is only
a fraction of real insider trading. More on this later. See also

How TigerSoft Flags
Savvy Insider Buying
We at TigerSoft are
privy to no insider tips or secrets. But over the
years, we have learned how to spot savvy insider trading that is
about to send the stock up and up and up! This pattern of buying
repeats over and over again, year after year, in all markets, because
someone on the inside knows something very good will happen to a
company in the not too distant future. They know this with a certainty
that is reflected in their manner of buying.
The Three Key Stages To Watch for
First, they quietly accumulate all the shares they can. A weak general
market environment makes this a relatively easy pursuit. See the
tell-tale bulges in the
TigerAoft Accumulation Index
in the chart below.
When no more shares are available this way, they become more
aggressive, because they know there is a very high probability that
the stock will be much higher in six months or a year. We spot this
stage technically, using our Accumulation Index, price patterns, volume
and the automatic Buy signals which we have back-tested for the
this purpose over more than 30 years of time with thousands of stocks'
charts.
Finally, because the stock is tightly held and the insiders have been
quite shrewd, prices rise
very sharply on high (red) volume, as more
and more professionals and a handful of public speculators jump aboard.
If you look closely, you can see all this in the DDRX chart below.
In particular, see how our TigerSoft Accumulation Index spots the
earlier periods of insider accumulation by rising above the +.5 threshold.
The indicator varies from -1.0 to +1.0. It is quite bullish that there were
three periods when it rose above +.50. A lot of stock was accumulated.
The many automatic Buys are our alerts to buy the stock. The rising
prices show us we were quite right; this was very savvy insider buying.
Who were the insiders here? Sometimes, you can tell by looking
at
the official inside trading records that corporate insiders must report
to the SEC. More often, there is no easy way to know. But make
no mistake about it, someone on the inside knew. That's why the
trading patterns matched so exactly the model we have constructed
to spot savvy insider buying. .

Wall Street's 'Dirty Little Secret'
INSIDER TRADING IS RAMPANT!
I have been writing for four years about
how the SEC
is worse than useless and toothless, because it still gives
the least informed members of the public the dangerous illusion
that there is a governmental agency effectively policing and
preventing investment fraud and insider trading. There is
so much proof of how rampant is insider trading that one hardly
knows where to begin to discuss it. And, with each new day
more examples emerge, along with governmental officials
decrying the state of affairs.
The US law itself seems clear. While corporate insiders,
key employees, directors and officials may buy or sell their
company's shares, they must not do so based on material
non-public information about their company and when they
do make a trade, they must report it to the SEC, which then
allows the public to see what they are up to. If insiders do
make trades based on non-public information, the trades
are considered fraudulent and the insiders are judged to
have violated their fiduciary responsibilities. In addition,
trades made by insiders tips to friends and associates are
illegal. Again, the insider's duty to public shareholders is
considered to have been violated by such tips. Stock brokers,
analysts and journalists who in the course of their duties, discover
and then trade upon non-public information that materially affects
a company's stock also break the law, if they "had
reason the
believe
that the tipper had breached a fiduciary duty in disclosing
information"
Federal Court decisions have further clarified what the law
considers insider trading. The SEC v. Texas Gulf Sulfur (1966)
is the most important case in setting the law. TGS found an unusually
rich deposit of ores near Timmins, Ontario. Initially, the company
issued discouraging press releases about the discovery, all the
while several directors for the company loaded up on call options
and stock. The press releases were meant to dupe the Canadian
farmers into selling or leasing their land at a fraction of its probable
values.
The 1934 Securities and Exchange Act gives the SEC the authority
to demand that violators give up their trading profits. They may
also ask a court to impose a penalty of up to 3 times the profit
realized by their insider trading. The sane law gives the US Justice
Department the authority to bring criminal prosecutions against
inside traders. In 2002, an inside trader could be given a 20-year
jail sentence and be fined up to $5 million. In practice, criminal
penalties are rarely sought, except in a few high profile cases. As
a consequence, such penalties act as very little deterrent.
Unfortunately for investors, the SEC acquired a reputation between
2000 and 2008 of being all but toothless. Too often they decided, while
the trading may have looked suspicious, it would been too hard
or too politically inconvenient to prove that the insider trading was
done because of illegal use of non-public information. The weaker
the SEC's enforcement looked, the bigger the problem became.
In August 2006, the NY
Times ran a lead story on page 1 that Wall
Street insider trading had "gone wild". "41% of all mergers worth
$1 billion or more over the last 12 months show signs of insider trading
ahead of the deals."
On October
26, 2007, the NY Post quoted a senior SEC official as
saying that insider trading was "rampant"
among Wall Street professionals.
"I am disappointed in
the number of cases we are seeing by people who
make an abundant livelihood in the market..."
In another example, a 5/18/2008 GA0 (Government Accounting) report on the
SEC wrote:
"In one case, an
enforcement attorney told the GAO that a
company offered to pay $1 million to settle a case, but the attorney
recommended no penalty because "they did not believe the commission
would approve the company offer."
See -
http://www.star-telegram.com/business/v-print/story/1380769.html
John Mack, the CEO of investment bank, Morgan Stanley is
apparently above
the law. Gary Aguirre, a former
SEC investigator, told a Congressional committee
that he was fired when he tried to
interview Mack about tipping off the
hedge fund Pequot Capital Management
about a 2001 merger deal between
GE Capital and Heller Financial.
Pequot netted $18 million in profits
from the tips. A Congrsssional
Investigation was launched. It
ended up
siding
with Aguierre against his bosses at the SEC
In July 2009, the
Seattle Times noted that the SEC typically goes after the small fries
for insider trading, while well placed insiders and institutions often get off without
even a warning. Insider trading, the articles concludes is rampant. Even former
SEC Chairman Cox admitted this: "There is ample
empirical evidence that there is
significant trading in securities markets on the basis of secret advance knowledge".
Flagrantly Illegal
insider Trading is rampant and commonplace. This is the
inescapable conclusion we reach looking at all the evidence. The SEC exists mostly
to
give the appearance of fairness for all investors on Wall Street. Insiders sell out
on
when
false, exaggerated and distorted "good news" comes out that they know will soon
turn
bad. Earnings and earnings' estimates cannot be safely trusted.
After-the-fact
discoveries of "Cooked Books" and CEO Lies and cover-ups are very common.
Since 2001, the SEC has prosecuted
about 50 cases of insider trading per year.
That is not nearly enough to stem the tide. Insiders who use a modicum of discretion
have no fear, especially if their gains are not out of the ordinary. The SEC picks a
minute
number of high profile individuals to prosecute for insider trading. This is for
show!
99.9% of the other cases where big gains are made flagrantly using insider trading
are ignored. The prosecution of a very few well known people is done for public
consumption, to make it seem that the SEC is protecting the public. This was
mainly true
in the Clinton Administration, too.
Certainly, the SEC rarely goes after the biggest investment banks, where so much
of the insider trading takes place. Look at the steadily red negative readings from
the TigerSoft Accumulation Index, for example, in Citigroup. These were
insiders
and their friends selling out. Even using the official records, insiders sold 1 million shares
in 2007 at or near the top!
See Tiger Blog 11/25/2008
RECKLESS
CITIGROUP INSIDERS SOLD 1,000,000 SHARES IN 2007.
Now taxpayers are bailing out
the company with more than $45 billion.
Why does the SEC not go after insiders like these?
Why not Kellinger (Washington Mutual) or Rubin or Prince (Citigroup)?
Just below is the WM chart I put on our Blog for 12/28/2007, nine months before I
warned it might go bankrupt, based on how extensive the insider selling was.
The TigerSoft chart shows you exactly what to look for.

Did you see how the market turned

His cronies on Wall Street got the
word a day ahead of the rest of us. This is exactly what happened
back last August. This is
clearly "insider trading". But the SEC is not going to investigate
the FED! The little guy just
has to take it! What's worse, the little guy on a fixed income
just must accept the +10% fall in
the Dollar for the last 12 months and all the inflation that
necessarily brings as Bernacke
lowers rates to bail out mortgage lenders and banks. Bernacke is
the pawn of Wall Street. He
clearly seeks their approval with every utterance. The little guy plays no
role in his political
calculus. I predicted Bernacke would do all he could to avert a stock market decline
until after a Democrat was in the
White House in 2009. That is Bernacke's prime directive. The problem
is that the dollar's decline is
accelerating now. At some point soon, investors in US stocks will
decide to jump ship. rather than
hold US denominated assets. That will cause an even bigger massacre
of stock prices.
