As global markets exhibit mixed signals with record highs in major indices and concerns over manufacturing contraction, investors continue to navigate through a complex economic landscape. In such times, growth companies with high insider ownership can be particularly appealing, as significant insider stakes often reflect confidence in the company's future prospects from those who know it best.
