| Land This Bargain Energy Stock Even Cheaper Than Chief Operating Officer Rhame DidBy Energy Stock Channel Staff, Tuesday, May 30, 11:32 AM ET
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 12, Vertex Energy Inc.'s Chief Operating Officer, James Gary Rhame, invested $25,310.40 into 4,000 shares of VTNR, for a cost per share of $6.33. 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 Tuesday, bargain hunters could buy shares of Vertex Energy Inc. (NASDAQ:VTNR) and achieve a cost basis 1.5% cheaper than Rhame, with shares changing hands as low as $6.23 per share. Vertex Energy Inc. shares are currently trading off about 4.4% on the day. The chart below shows the one year performance of VTNR shares, versus its 200 day moving average:
Looking at the chart above, VTNR's low point in its 52 week range is $5.42 per share, with $18.10 as the 52 week high point — that compares with a last trade of $6.24. By comparison, below is a table showing the prices at which VTNR insider buying was recorded over the last six months:
