Does following Amerant Bancorp Inc.’s insiders pay?
From December 27, 2018 to April 28, 2026, 20 insiders reported 23 open-market purchases and 19 sales not made under a pre-set plan in Amerant Bancorp Inc. Twelve months after each purchase was reported, the shares were +15.3% against the S&P 500 on average (median +33.0%), over 20 purchases with a full year of prices; 65% beat the index. After sales, the shares moved −15.6% against the index over 12 months (a negative figure means selling was the right call). Buying each purchase the day after it was reported, an equal amount each, held 12 months or until that insider reported a sale, would have turned $10,000 on December 28, 2018 into $39,982 by November 2, 2026, +19.4% a year. It held shares 70% of the time; the S&P 500 on those same days, with Treasury bills otherwise, made $23,533 (+11.6% a year), and held throughout $34,217 (+17.0%).
