Record Insider Buying Could Signal Junior Turnaround4Has the bottom been reached in the junior mining sector? That question has been asked repeatedly at big mining investing conferences like PDAC in March, and while no one knows the definitive answer, a clue that the sector does not have much further to fall can be teased out of statistics showing that insider buying on the TSX Venture Exchange is near a record high.

The Globe and Mail reported5 on April 30 that INK Research’s Venture indicator was at 715 percent, just 20 points shy of its record peak of 735 percent set on October 27, 2008. The indicator is based on insider transactions over the past 60 and 30 days. It means that there are more than seven stocks on the TSXV with insider buying for every one that shows insider selling.

The newspaper notes that the gold6 sector is driving much of the buying interest, with the INK Gold Stock Indicator over 1,000 percent, meaning that in junior gold mining right now there are currently more than 10 stocks with insider buying for every one with selling.
