Article Abstract:
A report analyzing insider trading on the Hongkong stock exchange confirmed the general belief that corporate insiders often succeed in buying when their shares are low in price and selling when they are high. The report, compiled by Frank O'Reilly and Robert Halili of Credit Lyonnais Securities, analyzed 2,475 disclosure records filed between May 1992 and Jul 1993 under a 1991 law compelling directors and CEOs to reveal dealings with their own firms' shares.
