Taking a look at insider buying this week, we see that insiders are just as cautious and uncertain as the rest of us. The insider buy-sell ratio has moved to levels that are typically bearish, meaning that many more insiders are selling than buying.
&nbsp;Now, that is not necessarily a disaster. Insiders sell stock for all sorts of reasons—estate planning, buying a house, funding a dream wedding or an Ivy League education, or, in some cases, a dream divorce.
But there is only one reason an insider buys: they think their stock is going to move a lot higher.
Right now, the lack of insider buying suggests they are not feeling overly confident about the market's long-term upside. And let's be honest, the broader market indicators aren't giving us any warm fuzzies either. Market cap to GDP, the Buffett Indicator, is sitting at historic highs. The overall allocation to equities among pensions, individuals, and institutions is near peak levels, a setup that historically leads to anemic returns over the next decade.
The excess CAPE yield, which compares corporate cash flows to Treasury yields, is flashing warning signs with a spread that screams, &#8220;proceed with caution.&#8221;
A lost decade is not out of the question. That does not mean an outright crash, though. It could take many forms: a brutal meltdown and a slow recovery, a melt-up followed by a grinding pullback, or just a long, ugly period of sideways action. The market has been running hot since 2009, and it has weathered a few hiccups—2018 and COVID—but each time, the Fed stepped in and bailed everyone out. That kind of intervention cannot last forever.
Then there is the extreme market concentration. Most of the recent gains are coming from a small handful of stocks. The last time the market was this narrow? 1998-1999. Before that? The Nifty Fifty era of the 1970s. Neither ended well. Do the math.
So, where is the smart money going during these turbulent times?
That brings us to Tom Gayner at Markel (Ticker: MKL).
Markel is not your typical insurance company.
&nbsp;It's a specialty insurer, covering everything from marine and aviation to professional liability and even horse insurance,. It seems in addition to specialty property and liability coverages they also insure racehorses, show horses, and livestock. &nbsp;That even includes major medical insurance for horses
The business is well-run and highly profitable. Gayner, who took the reins in 1990, has transformed it from a $40 million outfit into an $18 billion powerhouse.
His investment track record is nothing short of spectacular, crushing the S&amp;P 500 over multiple decades. Recently, he made two separate six-figure stock purchases—one in November, another in early February. That kind of move from a guy with his track record should make you sit up and take notice.
Markel is not just about insurance. It also runs an investment portfolio that mirrors the Berkshire Hathaway model, with a strong emphasis on long-term, value-driven stock picks. The firm's portfolio includes major stakes in companies like Berkshire Hathaway (Ticker: BRK-A), Google (Ticker: GOOGL), Brookfield (Ticker: BN), Amazon (Ticker: AMZN), John Deere (Ticker: DE), Home Depot (Ticker: HD), Visa (Ticker: V), Apple(Ticker: AAPL), and Watsco (Ticker: WSC),a top-tier HVAC distributor generating impressive cash flow.
More recently, they have been buying Franco-Nevada, a gold royalty company, and Hagerty Insurance, which specializes in classic car coverage. They have also added Airbnb, Dollar General, and Insperity, a staffing solutions provider. The investment strategy is built on high-quality businesses with strong cash flow, and Markel's ability to generate returns has been exceptional over time.
Another name that caught my eye? Amcor PLC (Ticker: AMCR). It is a UK-based packaging and container company specializing in medical and consumer goods packaging. They are in the process of acquiring Berry Global, which will significantly boost their market position.
The stock is cheap, trading at just $10 per share with a solid 5% dividend yield. The CEO just snapped up another $1 million worth of stock, increasing his stake by over 30%. When the guy running the show puts that kind of money on the table, you should pay attention.
And for those of you still swiping left and right, Match Group (Ticker: MTCH) insiders are making a move. Match owns all the big names in online dating—Tinder, Hinge, OkCupid, Plenty of Fish, and even some niche brands. The CEO just bought $2 million worth of stock, and a director stepped up with a six-figure buy.
This business has high gross margins, strong cash flow, and solid projected earnings growth for 2025. Wall Street loves it, and now the people at the top are backing it with their own cash.
So what is the takeaway? The overall market looks sketchy. Insiders are not exactly lining up to buy, which is a big red flag. But when the few who are buying happen to be seasoned, successful executives with a history of making smart bets, it is worth following their lead. Keep your eyes on Markel, Amcor, and Match Group.
These insiders are not waiting for permission. They are backing their convictions with real money. That is the kind of move you want to watch in times like these.

$1000 Invested In This Stock 15 Years Ago Would Be Worth This Much Today

A wave of full-shopping boycotts has taken hold in parts of Europe, with consumers in the Balkans leading the charge against skyrocketing grocery prices. Now, a movement in the U.S. is adopting a similar strategy—but for an entirely different reason.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">European Consumers Push Back Against Rising Costs</h2>
Shoppers across the Balkans recently organized supermarket boycotts to protest soaring food prices and a worsening cost of living crisis. Under the leadership of the consumer rights organization Hello, Inspector, the campaign began in Croatia and swiftly expanded to Bosnia and Herzegovina, Montenegro, and Serbia.

The boycott had an immediate impact. In Croatia alone, supermarket transactions dropped by 44%, and total sales plunged by 53%, according to tax authorities. In response, the Croatian government increased the number of price-capped essentials from 30 to 70. In an attempt to regain customers, grocery chains such as Kaufland and Konzum announced price reductions and frozen prices on a few products.

Winter weather is moving into nearly every part of the country this week and threatens to bring several different weather hazards depending on location. An atmospheric river is taking aim at fire-scarred areas of Southern California, while the MidAtlantic and Northeast regions brace for <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/02/43544471/winter-storm">more snow and ice.&nbsp;</a>
MidAtlantic Snow: The first major weather event of this busy week will strike the MidAtlantic region on Tuesday with snow and ice spreading through the Washington D.C., Philadelphia and New York City metro areas.&nbsp;

AccuWeather meteorologists warn that the <a href="https://www.accuweather.com/en/winter-weather/early-week-winter-storm-to-dump-snow-from-dc-to-philly-nyc/1743253">storm</a> will trigger plowing operations and deicing activity at airports in an area covering approximately 200,000 square miles.

Northeast Snow: A second snow and ice storm will follow quickly on the heels of the MidAtlantic snow, arriving on Wednesday night with snow forecast for New England and rain further south. Snow will change to sleet and freezing rain during the day on Thursday and come to an end on Thursday night. 
Grocery and home improvement stores may see increased traffic as people stock up on food and essentials before the storm. Retailers like Walmart, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WMT#NYSE">WMT</a>) and Home Depot, Inc.

The National Weather Service warned of "potentially life-threatening and damaging flooding and debris flows," which are a type of landslide that may affect the recently burned areas.&nbsp;
Residents and insurance companies in Southern California, like Allstate Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ALL#NYSE">ALL</a>) and Chubb Ltd.

The Trade Desk (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TTD#NASDAQ">TTD</a>): The digital advertising company saw strong interest from readers during the week, which comes ahead of fourth-quarter financial results on Feb. 12.

Analysts expect the company to report earnings per share of 56 cents for the fourth quarter, up from 41 cents per share in last year's fourth quarter. The company has beaten analyst estimates for revenue in more than 10 straight quarters and beaten estimates for earnings per share in three straight quarters and eight of the last 10 quarters overall. 
The stock has received favorable<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/TTD/analyst-ratings"> coverage from analysts</a> in recent weeks with several price target upgrades. Trade Desk shares have also been volatile after <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/entertainment/24/12/42278221/trade-desk-shares-are-on-the-rise-today-what-you-need-to-know">an analyst suggested</a> that the company could merge with Roku.

BigBear.ai Holdings Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BBAI#NYSE">BBAI</a>): The digital intelligence solutions provider saw interest soar along with its stock price during the week. BigBear.ai<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/02/43501000/ai-based-intelligence-provider-bigbearai-partners-with-dod-to-advance-national-security"> landed a Department of Defense contract</a> to advance AI-powered threat detection systems. The news of the DoD deal is welcomed by investors who saw shares fall after<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/24/11/41759387/bigbear-ai-stock-drops-after-worse-than-expected-q3-revenue-details"> third-quarter financial results</a> in November.
The company's quarterly revenue of $41.5 million missed Street consensus estimates. The company ended the third quarter with a backlog of $437 million, saying it was building a "long-term sustainable business." 
BigBear.ai shares <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/management/25/01/43016362/bigbearai-stock-surges-on-ceo-shake-up-the-details">also traded higher</a> in January with the announcement that Kevin McAleenan would be the new CEO. McAleenan previously served as the Acting Secretary of the U.S. Department of Homeland Security during President Donald Trump's first White House term.
BigBear.ai stock was up over 100% in the last week and shares are up over 400% in the past year.

Digital Realty Trust (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DLR#NYSE">DLR</a>): The data center company saw a surge in interest from Benzinga readers, leading to its second appearance on the Stock Whisper Index in three weeks. The rise in interest comes with Digital Realty's fourth-quarter financial results coming on Feb. 13.
Analysts expect the company to report earnings per share of $1.69 and revenue of $1.46 billion, both improvements to last year's fourth quarter. The company has missed analyst revenue estimates in four straight quarters, while beating earnings per share estimates in three straight quarters. Investors will be hoping the company beats both estimates.
Digital Realty saw a surge of interest in January with the announcement of The Stargate Project leading to more attention on AI infrastructure. There remains concerns that the new project could actually hurt Digital Realty, which could be something the company is asked about by analysts after its quarterly results.
Digital Realty shares are up 3.5% over the past week and up around 15% in the last year.

Home Depot Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HD#NYSE">HD</a>): The home improvement stock saw a surge in interest from readers during the week, including more than normal searches for a stock of its size. The interest could be related to pressure on stocks in the homebuilder sector due to tariff and economic concerns. Home Depot could also be volatile <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/02/43544471/winter-storm">with winter storms</a> impacting regions of the country. 
Home Depot is set to report fourth-quarter financial results on Feb. 25, with analysts expecting the company to have earnings per share of $2.97 and revenue of $38.7 billion. The company has beaten analyst estimates for earnings per share in more than 10 straight quarters. While Home Depot has only beaten analyst revenue estimates in one straight quarter, the company has beaten the consensus figure in six of the last 10 quarters. 
JPMorgan analyst Christopher Horvers recently<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/25/01/43166746/home-depot-likely-to-outcomp-lowes-in-q4-analyst-says-as-home-improvement-battle-heads-toward-earnings"> gave the nod</a> to Home Depot in the battle with rival Lowe's Companies for quarterly financial results. The analyst said Home Depot is likely to outcomp Lowe's with stabilizing consumer trends, cutting-edge technology, and its acquisition of SRS Distribution.

$1000 Invested In Home Depot 15 Years Ago Would Be Worth This Much Today

A dangerous winter storm is bringing snow, ice and freezing rain to portions of the Midwest and Northeast on Thursday. 
Another storm is following close behind and is expected to arrive this weekend. Here's a look at the potential impacts of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/01/43108615/southern-power-grids-face-historic-winter-test-as-snow-blankets-gulf">the winter weather. </a>
The Details: A moist air mass collided with cold air across the Midwest, Ohio Valley and Northeast, producing a corridor of sleet and freezing rain on Thursday.
&#8220;A storm sweeping across the central and eastern United States will bring a swath of hazardous freezing rain through Thursday,&#8221; warned AccuWeather Meteorologist Brandon Buckingham.
Blustery winds will enter the region behind the storm with maximum wind gusts of 65 miles per hour Thursday into Friday, <a href="https://www.accuweather.com/en/winter-weather/dangerous-snow-and-ice-storm-to-snarl-travel-across-the-midwest-northeast/1741400">according to</a> AccuWeather.&nbsp;

Forecast: Meteorologists warn that another winter storm will hit many of the same areas affected by Thursday's storm. A mix of snow, ice and rain or thunderstorms will advance from the Central states and head for the East Coast Friday night through Sunday morning.
Stocks To Watch: Observers expect Lowe&#8217;s Companies, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LOW#NYSE">LOW</a>) and Home Depot, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HD#NYSE">HD</a>) stores will have increased traffic as consumers buy salt, shovels and snowblowers to handle the storm. 
Walmart, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WMT#NYSE">WMT</a>) could also see a bump in sales as shoppers stock up on groceries and other household essentials. 
There is an increased risk of power outages, especially with freezing rain and ice in the forecast. 
Eversource Energy (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ES#NYSE">ES</a>) and Consolidated Edison, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ED#NYSE">ED</a>) are two power companies that operate in the Northeast. Observers would be wise to monitor those stocks in the event of widespread outages. 
Travelers should expect Thursday&#8217;s weather to affect flights through the weekend. JetBlue Airways Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/JBLU#NASDAQ">JBLU</a>) has major hubs in New York City and Boston. Delta Air Lines, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DAL#NYSE">DAL</a>) is also on watch as the air carrier operates all ten of the busiest US routes from Boston Logan International Airport.

Shares of retail and apparel stocks are trading lower as investors evaluate U.S. tariff risks which may hinder industry sales.

The Trump administration's Tuesday memo, titled "A Fork in the Road,&#8221; is being viewed as a move to push career federal workers out of their jobs and, observers say, replace them with loyalists, <a href="https://www.axios.com/2025/01/28/trump-federal-workers-quit-severance">noted</a> Axios, which first reported this story.
The memo, sent by email, told federal employees they have until Feb. 6 to choose whether to participate in a &#8220;deferred resignation program&#8221; that would allow them to decide now that they will resign in September.
"Between the flurry of anti-worker executive orders and policies, it is clear that the Trump administration's goal is to turn the federal government into a toxic environment where workers cannot stay even if they want to," said Everett Kelley, president of the American Federation of Government Employees in a statement <a href="https://apnews.com/article/trump-buyouts-to-all-federal-employees-f67f5751a0fd5ad8471806a5a1067b5e">reported</a> by the Associated Press.
&#8220;If you resign under this program, you will retain all pay and benefits regardless of your daily workload and will be exempted from all applicable in-person work requirements until Sept. 30, 2025 (or earlier if you choose to accelerate your resignation for any reason),&#8221; the email stated. An IRS employee in Kansas City told Benzinga she received her email at around 7 p.m. ET Tuesday evening.
The federal government employed more than three million people as of November 2024, which accounted for nearly 2% of the nation's entire civilian workforce, <a href="https://www.pewresearch.org/short-reads/2025/01/07/what-the-data-says-about-federal-workers/">according</a> to the Pew Research Center. Not counting the Postal Service, there are more than 2.4 million federal workers, which makes the federal government the nation's single largest employer, with even more workers than Walmart, Amazon or McDonald's.
"Even a fraction of the workforce accepting buyouts could send shockwaves through the economy and trigger widespread disruptions throughout society as a whole, triggering wide-ranging — and as yet unknowable — implications for the delivery, timeliness and effectiveness of federal services across the nation," notes the Pew report.
While President Donald Trump vowed to disrupt Washington with the help of the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/12/42608814/elon-musks-doge-role-in-government-set-for-fascinating-tough-fight-says-analyst-walter-isaacson-sees-challenges-for-tesla-ceos-federal-path">Department of Government Efficiency</a> headed by Tesla CEO <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/elon-musk">Elon Musk</a>, the buyout orders, if undertaken, could have immediate negative effects on key sectors in the U.S. economy.
For example, contractors and IT services that provide defense solutions to the government such as Leidos Holdings, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LDOS#NYSE">LDOS</a>), Booz Allen Hamilton (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BAH#NYSE">BAH</a>) and General Dynamics Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GD#NYSE">GD</a>) could be affected. Northrop Grumman Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NOC#NYSE">NOC</a>), a defense and aerospace contractor, and Lockheed Martin Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LMT#NYSE">LMT</a>) could benefit if these federal functions are outsourced.
The financial and banking sector should experience some changes. JPMorgan Chase &amp; Co (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/JPM#NYSE">JPM</a>) and Bank of America Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BAC#NYSE">BAC</a>) to mention just two, could be impacted by lending, mortgage markets and consumer spending.
Speaking of consumer spending and, judging from Pew's graph of where government workers are employed, retail giants such as Walmart Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WMT#NYSE">WMT</a>), Target Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TGT#NYSE">TGT</a>) Amazon.com Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>) and Home Depot Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HD#NYSE">HD</a>) could feel the pinch as shoppers in areas with large government employment tighten their belts.
Pew points out that, fewer than a fifth of federal workers work in or near Washington, D.C. as many might presume. California and Texas have the largest contingents of federal employees and 30,800 federal employees work overseas.
