Consumer Staples — UK insider buying

Food, drink and household goods. Fewer disclosures, and typically from larger, slower-moving registers.

32 disclosed directors purchases across 15 consumer staples companies in the last twelve months, worth £3.5m. The median buy has returned +2.4% against the market since it was disclosed.

32 buys · £3.5m · 15 companies · 23 directors · median alpha +2.4%

44% of that value is GNC alone.

Rolling twelve months of disclosed purchases. Median alpha is measured against the market from the disclosure-day close — the first price a reader could have paid — not from the insider's own entry, and is marked to the latest cached close. Past performance is not a reliable indicator of future results.
