| Top Buys by Top Brass: EVP, Chief Financial Officer Michel's $302K Bet on HMSTBy Dividend Channel Staff, Tuesday, November 9, 10:16 AM ET
A company's own top management tend to have the best inside view into the business, so when company officers make major buys, investors are wise to take notice. 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 — maybe they find the stock very undervalued, or maybe they see exciting progress within the company, or maybe both. So in this series we look at the largest insider buys by the ''top brass'' over the trailing six month period, one of which was a total of $302K by John Michel, EVP, Chief Financial Officer at HomeStreet Inc (NASDAQ:HMST). Michel bets big on HMST:
Michel's average cost works out to $37.75/share. Shares of HomeStreet Inc were changing hands at $49.27 at last check, trading off about 0.6% on Tuesday. The chart below shows the one year performance of HMST shares, versus its 200 day moving average:
Looking at the chart above, HMST's low point in its 52 week range is $32.095 per share, with $52.35 as the 52 week high point — that compares with a last trade of $49.27. The current annualized dividend paid by HomeStreet Inc is $1/share, currently paid in quarterly installments, and its most recent dividend ex-date was on 11/08/2021. Below is a long-term dividend history chart for HMST, which can be of good help in judging whether the most recent dividend with approx. 2.0% annualized yield is likely to continue.
