Does following BAR Harbor Bankshares’s insiders pay?
From March 18, 2010 to April 28, 2026, 30 insiders reported 58 open-market purchases and 81 sales not made under a pre-set plan in BAR Harbor Bankshares. Twelve months after each purchase was reported, the shares were +0.3% against the S&P 500 on average (median −4.4%), over 55 purchases with a full year of prices; 42% beat the index. After sales, the shares moved +0.1% 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 June 15, 2010 into $41,906 by November 2, 2026, +9.2% a year. It held shares 80% of the time; the S&P 500 on those same days, with Treasury bills otherwise, made $44,161 (+9.5% a year), and held throughout $90,357 (+14.4%).
