Insiders who beat the market

Officers, directors and big owners must report when they buy or sell their own company's stock. These are the ones whose buys did best a year later.1

Each buy is an open-market purchase (Form 4, code P) of at least $5,000. "A year later" is the stock's move over the next 365 days minus the S&P 500's. Insiders with at least four scored buys and $250,000 bought, ranked by their median buy. Prices exclude dividends.
