There's an old saying on Wall Street about insider buying: there are many possible reasons to sell a stock, but only one reason to buy. Back on May 13, Moelis & Company Class A's Director, Robert C. Patent, invested $79,858.70 into 1,000 shares of MC, for a cost per share of $79.86. Bargain hunters tend to pay particular attention to insider buys like this one, because presumably the only reason an insider would take their hard-earned cash and use it to buy stock of their company in the open market, is that they expect to make money.

In trading on Wednesday, bargain hunters could buy shares of Moelis & Company Class A (NYSE:MC) and achieve a cost basis 45.7% cheaper than Patent, with shares changing hands as low as $43.36 per share. Moelis & Company Class A shares are currently trading off about 2% on the day. The chart below shows the one year performance of MC shares, versus its 200 day moving average:
