Monthly summaries of insider trading activities (stock purchases, sales, and option exercises) reported by insiders of Universal Forest Products, Inc. in the last 24 months from Insider Monitor.

"Never before has monitoring insider trading become so easy. Insiders (corporate officers, directors, and beneficiary owners) are now required to report to the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) within two business days after they trade stocks of their own companies." Insider Monitor reports "this vital insider buying and selling information to the public in daily, weekly, monthly, and real-time reports."

"Many investors have heard the term Insider trading and usually associate it with illegal conduct. In fact the term includes both legal and illegal conduct. The legal version is when corporate insiders (officers, directors, and beneficiary owners) buy and sell stock in their own companies. When corporate insiders trade in their own securities, they must report their trades to the SEC as mentioned above."

"Note that insider stock trading activity should not be used as a simple technical indicator when deciding to buy or sell a stock. However, insider buying and selling activity is a good starting point to further investigate a company, either by analyzing the fundamental data of the company or by studying other insider trading related matters such as the stock trading history of the insider, the type of insider (officer or beneficiary owner) etc."

Insider Monitor publishes "a number of insider stock trading reports to help analyzing insider buying and selling activities."
