There's an old saying on Wall Street about insider buying: there are many possible reasons to sell a stock, but only one reason to buy. Back on November 20, J&J Snack Foods Corp.'s Director, Kathleen E. Ciaramello, invested $48,902.40 into 540 shares of JJSF, for a cost per share of $90.56. Bargain hunters tend to pay particular attention to insider buys like this one, because 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. In trading on Tuesday, bargain hunters could buy shares of J&J Snack Foods Corp. (Symbol: JJSF) and achieve a cost basis 2.5% cheaper than Ciaramello, with shares changing hands as low as $88.34 per share.
