In recent weeks, global markets have experienced volatility due to tariff uncertainties and mixed economic signals, with U.S. stocks ending lower amid concerns over potential trade conflicts. Despite these fluctuations, many companies have reported strong earnings, suggesting that certain sectors may still offer growth opportunities even as broader market conditions remain challenging. In this environment, growth companies with high insider ownership can be particularly appealing to investors. Insider ownership often indicates confidence in the company's future prospects and can align management's interests with those of shareholders.
