Most investors focus on what company executives say.

Michael Brush focuses on what they do.

When corporate insiders commit significant amounts of their own money to buy shares of their company's stock, they're sending a powerful signal. They know their businesses better than anyone else. They see customer demand, operational trends, and emerging improvements long before those developments become obvious to the broader market.

That's why meaningful insider buying has long been one of the market's most powerful—and overlooked—indicators.

Cabot Insider Edge helps subscribers capitalize on these opportunities by tracking large insider purchases, cluster buying by multiple executives, and insider activity that occurs during periods of negative sentiment or market weakness. These signals often emerge before Wall Street changes its outlook and before stocks begin their next major move.

Chief Analyst Michael Brush has spent decades studying insider activity and the role it plays in identifying undervalued stocks. As a longtime MarketWatch columnist and award-winning financial journalist, he's developed a disciplined framework for separating meaningful insider signals from routine transactions and market noise.

The goal is simple: identify high-conviction opportunities before the broader market catches on.

Each month, Cabot Insider Edge delivers carefully researched stock recommendations, insider activity analysis, buy guidance, portfolio updates, and timely alerts when significant insider buying creates new opportunities.

Subscribers also gain access to a professionally managed model portfolio that provides position-sizing guidance, portfolio structure, and ongoing buy, hold, and sell recommendations.

Whether you're a contrarian investor looking for confirmation before stepping into an out-of-favor stock, or simply want a disciplined, evidence-based approach to finding opportunities, Cabot Insider Edge can help you align yourself with the people who know their businesses best—the insiders themselves.
