| Snatch This Bargain Energy Stock Even Cheaper Than Director Pease DidBy Energy Stock Channel Staff, Wednesday, February 21, 10:41 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 February 15, Phillips 66's Director, Robert W. Pease, invested $99,967.56 into 682 shares of PSX, for a cost per share of $146.58. 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 Phillips 66 (NYSE:PSX) and achieve a cost basis 4.2% cheaper than Pease, with shares changing hands as low as $140.49 per share. It should be noted that Pease has collected $1.05/share in dividends since the time of their purchase, so they are currently down 3.4% on their purchase from a total return basis. Phillips 66 shares are currently trading down about 1.9% on the day. The chart below shows the one year performance of PSX shares, versus its 200 day moving average:
Looking at the chart above, PSX's low point in its 52 week range is $89.74 per share, with $149.52 as the 52 week high point — that compares with a last trade of $141.93. By comparison, below is a table showing the prices at which PSX insider buying was recorded over the last six months:
The current annualized dividend paid by Phillips 66 is $4.2/share, currently paid in quarterly installments, and its most recent dividend ex-date was on 02/16/2024. Below is a long-term dividend history chart for PSX, which can be of good help in judging whether the most recent dividend with approx. 3.0% annualized yield is likely to continue.
