Insiders are Spending a Fortune on These 2 Stocks. Should You Follow their Lead?
Every time the market swoons, the level of insider buying picks up sharply. It's the natural reflex company officers and directors have in a bid to defend their stock. Trouble is, these folks don't have the greatest track records. If the market falls further, then their stocks often perform poorly. And if the market rebounds, then their stocks simply rise in tandem with the rest of the pack.
Instead, I like to watch the actions of insiders when markets are moving sideways or are on an upswing. That's when insiders give a much clearer signal that shares hold value.
To be sure, insider buying appears to be at a lull since the market has been surging. The volume of daily and weekly filings has been fairly low in 2012. But the stocks that are seeing fresh insider buying surely deserve a close look right now. The 11 stocks in the table below have been the beneficiary of at least $ 400,000 of fresh buying since the start of the year.

Should You Invest in Groupon, LinkedIn and Other Hot Social Media Stocks?
The social media freshmen are entering their sophomore year. LinkedIn (Nasdaq: LNKD), Groupon (Nasdaq: GRPN) and Zynga (Nasdaq: ZNGA) have shaken off the post-IPO jitters, so now investors have the clearest picture yet of how large these companies can grow in the coming quarters and years.
[block:block=16]I've written before about the dangers of investing in IPOs right out of the gate, especially for these social-media darlings. But now that the proverbial smoke has cleared, can we can get a clear view of the path ahead for these companies, and are shares even worth your investment?
As a quick recap, LinkedIn, which operates a social media website for professionals, has been surging after fourth-quarter results were released. Meanwhile, daily-deal website Groupon and Zynga, which makes popular social media games for Facebook, pulled back after their numbers came out. Still, none of these stocks are bargains in terms of projected near-term results. Each stock trades for at least 50 times projected 2012 earnings and at least five times projected 2012 sales.
