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 March 11, Prospect Capital Corporation's CFO, Kristin Lea Van Dask, invested $27,199.50 into 5,000 shares of PSEC, for a cost per share of $5.44. 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 Prospect Capital Corporation (NASDAQ:PSEC) and achieve a cost basis even cheaper than Van Dask, with shares changing hands as low as $5.41 per share. Prospect Capital Corporation shares are currently trading off about 0.9% on the day. The chart below shows the one year performance of PSEC shares, versus its 200 day moving average:
