Does following Goldman Sachs’s insiders pay?
From February 10, 2010 to October 29, 2026, 37 insiders reported 3 open-market purchases and 189 sales not made under a pre-set plan in Goldman Sachs. Twelve months after each purchase was reported, the shares were +41.1% against the S&P 500 on average (median +39.8%), over 3 purchases with a full year of prices; 100% beat the index. After sales, the shares moved +1.0% 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 October 10, 2024 into $19,364 by November 2, 2026, +38.1% a year. It held shares 74% of the time; the S&P 500 on those same days, with Treasury bills otherwise, made $12,704 (+12.4% a year), and held throughout $13,433 (+15.5%).

When several insiders traded Goldman Sachs
Months when 2 or more insiders became net buyers, or 3 or more net sellers, of Goldman Sachs in reports dated in the 91 days before the month end, and how the stock did against the S&P 500 from that month end. After 18 selling crowds, +2.5%. One company's history is too short to judge by; the test across every company is the better guide.
