The price reactions when a company fails to meet expectations are sometimes hard to comprehend. But even if the quarterly results are better than expected, rising prices are by no means guaranteed. The share of S&P Global (SPGI), for example, lost ground last week, although the company presented very decent figures. Even though the stock is not quite out of the woods yet, you should put this stock on your watchlist. [SPGI Stock] S&P Global: Leading Information Provider For The Financial Sector We all know the S&P 500, the most important American stock index. The company behind this index, however, is probably not familiar to all of you. We are talking about S&P Global. You may have heard the company's old name before. Until April 2016, the group operated under the name McGraw Hill. The media conglomerate, which was formed in 1917 by the merger of McGraw and Hill's Companies, moved into finance in 1966 with the acquisition of Standard & Poor's. In November 2012, the company divested its McGraw-Hill Education publishing division and subsequently focused fully on its McGraw Hill Financial business. This was followed in 2016 by a rebranding as S&P Global. Today, the company employs around 23,000 people and is one of the leading information service providers for the financial sector. The most important segment, which is responsible for around half of revenues, is the strong ratings business. Here, Standard & Poor's is the global market leader ahead of its competitor Moody's. In addition, S&P Global operates various online databases and the index business S&P Dow Jones Indices. The consulting business is also becoming increasingly important. New Records For Sales And Profits Last week before the start of trading, S&P Global presented results for the fourth quarter and full year 2021. In the final quarter, the group reported a 12% increase in revenue to $2.09 billion. Net income jumped 49% to $675 million. Earnings adjusted for one-time items grew 16% to $3.15 per share. Analysts had expected earnings of only $3.13 per share and revenues of $2.05 billion. For the full year, S&P Global increased revenue 11% to $8.30 billion. Net income improved 29% to $3.26 billion, also a new record. Another positive development is that the antitrust authorities have now given the green light for the acquisition of financial data provider IHS Markit, which was announced just over a year ago. Nothing now stands in the way of the deal being concluded in the near future. Bottom Formation Still Ongoing S&P Global remains on course for growth. Analysts forecast average earnings increases of 10% per year over the next five years. The prospects are good. However, the chart technique does not give a green light at the moment. During the correction, the share price fell back below the 200-day line, which indicates the medium-term trend. After a short countermovement, the price recently fell again. It's important that the January correction low at 391 dollars holds. The key resistances are the recent interim high at a good $423 and the 200-day line, which is currently at $432. From a trend perspective, it's advisable to wait and see whether the return above the moving average is successful. In this case, the lights for a resumption of the long-term uptrend jump to green. The first target is then the all-time high reached in December at $484.

Don’t believe it? Let’s turn to GuruFocus. Their chart below provides a monthly breakdown of when the number of buyers outpaced the number of sellers (the ratio). When the number of buyers outpaces the number of sellers, the ratio is above 1. When the number of sellers outpaces the number of buyers, the ratio is under 1. At the height of the 2008 financial crisis, insiders called a bottom on their stocks over October 2008 through March 2009. [GuruFocus Buy Sell Ratio] When the Federal Reserve stepped in with Operation Twist, and Congress executed a significant stimulus package under the Obama Administration, markets started their turnaround on March 6, 2009. It doesn’t stop there. A surging insider buy-to-sell ratio accompanied short-term bottoms over the last decade. Insiders ramped up buying during the debt ceiling jitters and Black Monday of 2011. Buyers also stepped in in late 2015 after China sent panic across the markets (alongside falling oil prices and Greek debt woes). The same transpired after a significant selloff in late 2018 due to the “Chinese tariff” tantrum, expected interest rate hikes, regulatory speculation in the tech sector, and other factors. The most significant buying since the Great Financial Crisis transpired in March 2020 when COVID-19 fears shut down the U.S. economy and the S&P 500 shed roughly 34% in a matter of weeks Insider buying ramped up over two weeks as the Federal Reserve announced an unprecedented amount of monetary stimulus. Once again, the insider buying signaled a bottom in the market, reminding investors once again that no one knows the balance sheets and the value of corporate assets better than chief executive officers, chief financial officers, board members, and other executives who scoop up their own shares on the cheap. Of course, it also helps when the Fed plays ball. History Repeats Itself? Executives might sell their stock for any number of reasons. A CEO might sell a few million dollars in stock because they think the stock is heading lower or need to buy a new vacation property or send a child to school. Of course, one sale doesn’t provide many clues about sentiment. But a large amount of selling by multiple executives – a process known as cluster selling – could indicate that corporate insiders think the stock is overvalued compared to where it might be in a few months. In mid-2021, interest rates remained at zero – alongside low expectations that the Fed would raise interest rates by March 2022. However, as sentiment slowly increased for rate hikes slowly, we saw significant insider selling. In the first 11 months of December, CEOs and insiders sold $69 billion in stock, according to InsiderScore/Verity. That figure was 79% above a 10-year average and a relatively clear signal that executives were happy to take money off the table. Since November, the selloff across the markets fueled the usual speculation on when a bottom would form. In the case of locating a bottom, the most apparent predictor would be the amount of buying and selling in the market. Following a dismal selloff during January expiration week, many traders kept a close eye on whether we would see a large round of insider buying. Sure enough, a pattern of solid buying revealed itself during the final week of the month. The chart below – from SecForm4.com, which tracks insider buying and selling – shows the five-day moving average of insider buying to selling in dollar amounts during the period. The blue line reveals that – following that dramatic January selloff, the 5-day moving average of insider buying to selling in terms of dollar amount hit its highest level since March 2020. [SecForm4 Buy Sell Ratio] The January wave of insider buying signaled a bottom alongside various other metrics like aggregate momentum of oversold ETFs. This might not predict a complete bottom of the market – as evidenced during the 2008 crisis and multiple months of strong buying. However, that buying pattern did provide some stabilization before the surprise pronouncements of James Bullard in mid-February and around Russia-Ukraine tensions. Should those tensions and Fed jitters push the market lower, continue to monitor the 5-day moving average of this metric in times of high volatility and the common question we always hear when the market sells off: Are we at the bottom yet? The insiders will tell you if you listen.
