Does following Piedmont Realty Trust, Inc.’s insiders pay?
From March 8, 2011 to May 5, 2025, 18 insiders reported 43 open-market purchases and 7 sales not made under a pre-set plan in Piedmont Realty Trust, Inc. Twelve months after each purchase was reported, the shares were −11.1% against the S&P 500 on average (median −6.4%), over 43 purchases with a full year of prices; 37% beat the index. After sales, the shares moved −9.9% against the index over 12 months (a negative figure means selling was the right call).
