It is good to see the market recognizing that some of these SaaS companies like $ADBE, $NAVN, $ADSK and $CRM were oversold. My updated list of 62 software companies with insider buying can be found here in a tool that was built using Claude: https://t.co/ov9dxXgBid Here is some of what I wrote about the data in our July mid-month update a couple of week ago: "Industries in crisis provide fantastic opportunities if you are willing to wait patiently for some of the dust to settle and don’t mind temporary drawdowns as it is nearly impossible to pick bottoms. Earlier this year I started compiling a list of software and software-adjacent companies that were seeing insider buying after a massive drop in the price of their stock. I covered why this was important and included a list of 11 companies with insider buying in my article Where Are The Software Insiders? in February. Software-adjacent Companies What do I mean by “software-adjacent” companies? These are companies that have also seen their stock prices decline because of the perceived threat of AI to their business models. The list includes data providers like S&P Global $SPGI, MSCI $MSCI, and Morningstar $MORN. It includes e-commerce marketplaces like ThredUp $TDUP as well as the Latin America focused juggernaut MercadoLibre $MELI. It includes FinTech companies like SoFi $SOFI, PicS $PICS, PagSeguro Digital $PAGS, and StoneCo $STNE. I also decided to include cybersecurity companies like Palo Alto Networks $PANW and Gen Digital $GEN. Sixty Two Companies With Insider Buying The full list included 72 companies but I decided to get rid of five with a market cap below $500 million and another five whose gross margin was below 40%. The insider data is clean as a whistle because I reviewed every filing, read the footnotes and even adjusted the price of one purchase (Marqeta) to account for a reverse split. The buyback data specified in the Double Dipper column should also be good as I did several spot checks against 10Q and 10K filings. The rest of the data including valuation ratios and company metrics come from our data provider (FMP) and could have some issues. Several of these companies are foreign issuers (EPS reported in Brazilian reals but price reported in U.S. dollars), some went public within the last year and some ratios will be impacted by one-time items or growth from a tiny base. We have covered 18 of these companies in InsideArbitrage articles or newsletters"
