| Top Buys by Top Brass: CFO Burke's $808.2K Bet on VSTBy Energy Stock Channel Staff, Friday, May 7, 2:23 PM 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 $808.2K invested across 2 purchases by James A. Burke, CFO at Vistra Corp (NYSE:VST). Burke bets big on VST:
Burke's average cost works out to $17.20/share. In trading on Friday, bargain hunters could buy shares of Vistra Corp (NYSE:VST) and achieve a cost basis lower than Burke, with shares changing hands as low as $15.47 per share. Shares of Vistra Corp were changing hands at $15.72 at last check, trading down about 2.2% on Friday. The chart below shows the one year performance of VST shares, versus its 200 day moving average:
