Does following Aspen Aerogels Inc’s insiders pay?
From August 19, 2014 to September 24, 2026, 19 insiders reported 30 open-market purchases and 26 sales not made under a pre-set plan in Aspen Aerogels Inc. Twelve months after each purchase was reported, the shares were +52.6% against the S&P 500 on average (median −31.1%), over 16 purchases with a full year of prices; 31% beat the index. After sales, the shares moved +65.2% against the index over 12 months (a negative figure means selling was the right call). That rests on fewer than 20 purchases, too few to read much into. 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 August 20, 2014 into $5,209 by November 2, 2026, −5.2% a year. It held shares 57% of the time; the S&P 500 on those same days, with Treasury bills otherwise, made $30,674 (+9.6% a year), and held throughout $46,626 (+13.5%).
