Bargain Hunters Take Note: Insider Cluster-Buying At EMN

A particularly strong insider buying signal is what we call a "cluster-buy" where three or more different insiders make open market purchases within a short period of one another. At Eastman Chemical Co (Symbol: EMN), 6 different insiders purchased 18,703 shares at an average price of $68.42/share, for a total of $1.28M, with the most recent purchase on August 27, 2025.

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. So when multiple insiders all decide to make purchases around the same time, it could be a strong indication that the stock is undervalued.
