Insider Buying Clusters

Companies where multiple insiders bought stock in the same short window — a cluster of conviction from the people who know the business best. This week's data highlights a shift toward healthcare, energy, and select tech names where insider accumulation is both broad and sustained, while heavy selling in mega-cap AI leaders like NVDA and TSLA signals that insider conviction is diverging sharply from market enthusiasm.
