GAM GENERAL AMERICAN INVESTORS CO INC Insider Trading

SVP Majmudar bought 500 GAM shares at $24.66 on 2026-04-20; 2 other insiders also bought within 14 days; prior 5 GAM trades averaged 30d returns of 91.6%, with 2-of-2 prior buys well-timed at 90 days.

Majmudar's purchase of 500 shares at $24.66 follows a strong pattern: his prior five trades at GAM have delivered exceptional 30-day returns (ranging from +138.4% to +144.3%), and 2 of 2 prior buys with measurable 90-day outcomes were well-timed, meaning the stock rose meaningfully after entry. The current transaction occurs within a cluster—2 other insiders also bought within the past 14 days—suggesting aligned conviction across the leadership team. At the current price of $64.30 (the 52-week high), the stock has risen +8.8% over 30 days and +6.5% over 90 days; the disparity between transaction price ($24.66) and current price suggests either substantial appreciation since his April 20 trade, a price reset, or a notable multi-leg acquisition pattern. His track record across all tickers shows 16 prior buys with an avg 90d return of +91.1% and a 92.31% win rate, indicating consistent timing acuity. The concentration of buy activity by multiple insiders warrants close monitoring of the company's forward guidance and capital allocation strategy.

SVP Majmudar buys 1,000 GAM shares at $24.81; 3 of 3 prior GAM buys showed 90d gains up to +148.9%; cluster pattern with 2 other insiders in past 14 days

This current purchase aligns with a cluster pattern: 2 other insiders also bought within the past 14 days. The stock has appreciated 6.4% over 30 days and trades at its 52-week high of $63.83, a significant move from the $24.81 purchase price on this filing's transaction date (2026-04-17).

Across his broader cross-ticker open-market history, Stark's track record shows 20 prior buys with an average 90-day return of +80.4% and an 84.62% win rate, though none of his prior same-ticker outcomes at GAM are yet measurable.

His cross-ticker buy record across 12 prior transactions shows a 100.00% win rate with a 90-day average return of +97.6%. The current stock price of $60.95 sits below the 52-week high of $63.77, suggesting the insider purchased below the most recent peak, with measurable price appreciation (+1.9% in the prior 30 days) but not at extreme valuation. The consistency of positive outcomes across his GAM purchase history—four sequential well-timed acquisitions—establishes a notable pattern in this CEO's execution at this specific ticker.

VP/CCO Eugene S Stark buys 838 GAM shares in 2 tranches at $24.92–$24.95; stock now $56.97 (+128% from transaction price).

Stark purchased 838 shares across two transactions at a blended average price of $24.94 on 2026-03-27 and 2026-03-30, increasing his holdings from 27,011 to 27,849 shares (+3.1%).

Across his open-market history on all tickers, Stark's prior buys averaged +78.3% return over 30 days and +81.6% over 90 days with an 86.67% 90-day win rate, though his GAM-specific prior trades remain too recent to assess measurable outcomes. The timing of these purchases during a period when the stock was down -7.8% over 30 days and -3.1% over 90 days, combined with his strong historical track record, suggests disciplined accumulation at lower price points, though the very recent transaction dates limit definitive outcome measurement.

VP Stark Eugene S purchases 838 shares at GAM in 2 transactions (blended avg $24.94) during 30-day price decline of -7.8%

Stark Eugene S, Vice President of Administration, Chief Compliance Officer, and Principal Financial Officer at General American Investors Co Inc, executed 2 separate purchases totaling 838 shares for $20,902.10 on 2026-03-27 and 2026-03-30 at a blended average price of $24.94.

His holdings increased by 3.1% to 27,849 shares post-transaction. His cross-ticker track record shows strong historical performance with an 86.67% win rate and average 90-day returns of +81.6% across 20 prior buys, though his prior trades at GAM remain largely unmeasured, with only one prior buy on 2026-01-13 showing a measurable 30-day return of +144.3%.

VP Administration/CCO/PFO Stark bought 11 GAM shares at $24.95 on 2026-03-20; 5 prior buys at same ticker, 3 of 3 measurable buys well-timed at 90d mark.

Stark Eugene S purchased 11 shares of GENERAL AMERICAN INVESTORS CO INC at $24.95, representing a minimal addition to his 27,000-share holding (+0.0% net change). The dollar value of this transaction ($274.45) is modest and does not suggest material capital deployment. However, his same-ticker purchase history at GAM shows a consistent pattern: his prior three measurable buys (at prices achieved 30 and 90 days post-transaction) all generated positive 90-day returns (ranging from +5.6% to +137.9%), with a 3 of 3 perfect timing record. His cross-ticker track record over 20 open-market buys also shows a strong 83.33% 90-day win rate at +68.0% average return, indicating a disciplined accumulation approach historically. The current stock price of $59.82 stands 6.2% below the 52-week high of $63.77, and the recent 30-day decline of -3.2% may present a tactical entry point consistent with his demonstrated buying pattern at GAM.

VP Stark buys 3,000 GAM shares at $24.95; prior 4 buys all showed positive 90d returns, current price $59.60 represents 139% gain since purchase

Stark Eugene S, VP Administration/CCO/PFO, purchased 3,000 shares of General American Investors Co Inc at $24.95 on 2026-03-13 for $74,850.00, increasing his holdings from 24,000 to 27,000 shares. His track record at this ticker is notably strong: all 5 prior purchases have recorded measurable outcomes, with 4 of 4 prior buys showing positive 90-day returns (ranging from +11.6% to +137.9%), establishing a 100% timing pattern at this security. His cross-ticker buy history shows 19 prior purchases with an average 90-day return of +68.0% and an 83.33% win rate, providing additional context for pattern consistency. The current market price of $59.60 is significantly above his March 2026 purchase price of $24.95, though this comparison requires acknowledgment that the trade occurred at a substantially depressed level relative to recent trading history (52-week range $45.31–$63.77). The combination of consistent accurate timing across all prior GAM purchases and substantial recent accumulation at a historically low entry point warrants continued investor attention.

Across his broader cross-ticker history, Priest has achieved an average 90-day return of +97.6% on 11 prior buys with a 100% win rate. The current stock price of $58.93 sits -7.6% from its 52-week high, having declined -4.3% over 30 days but remained flat (+0.6%) over 90 days. The consistency of his GAM purchase timing and extraordinary returns at this specific ticker over the past year establish a material pattern that warrants investor attention to his forward guidance and the operational drivers that may have informed this latest accumulation.
