Thomas J. Herzfeld purchased 3,610 shares of Herzfeld Credit Income Fund at $16.01 on 2026-04-15, increasing his holdings to 197,248 shares (a 1.9% addition). The stock has since risen to $17.10, up 9.2% over 30 days, yet remains 38.0% below its 52-week high of $27.60. Herzfeld's cross-ticker track record shows marginal 30-day and 90-day returns (-1.0% and -0.2% average, respectively), and at this same ticker he has made two prior measurable purchases in early March with mixed near-term outcomes (one up 3.0%, one down 0.7% at 30 days). The current buy represents a small incremental position increase at a price well below the stock's recent range extremes, with insufficient price history elapsed to assess outcome yet.

Paylor Ryan M executed 2 separate purchases totaling 486 shares for $7,733.50 at a blended average price of $15.91, increasing his stake by 8.0% from 6,081 to 6,567 shares.

His cross-ticker track record shows mixed outcomes: 5 prior buys with an average 90-day return of -0.5% and a 66.67% 90-day win rate, suggesting no strong pattern of prescient timing. At this specific ticker (HERZ), his 2 prior buys in early March showed modest near-term divergence: one gained +3.0% over 30 days, the other declined -0.7%, with 90-day outcomes not yet measurable. The current price of $17.10 reflects a recovery of +9.2% over the past 30 days but remains -12.1% over 90 days and -38.0% from the 52-week high of $27.60, indicating recent stabilization in a volatile position.

HERZ insider Herzfeld bought 2,974 shares at $15.50 on 2026-03-27, bringing holdings to 193.6K; stock is -43.8% from 52-week high.

Thomas J Herzfeld purchased 2,974 shares at $15.50 on 2026-03-27, expanding his stake by +1.6% to 193.6K shares. The buy occurred in the context of significant weakness: the stock is trading -43.8% below its 52-week high of $27.60. Over the same 25-day period, Herzfeld executed two prior open-market purchases at HERZ (2026-03-02 and 2026-03-03), suggesting a pattern of accumulation during recent declines. Notably, his cross-ticker track record across 19 prior buys shows a 35.29% 90-day win rate with an average 90-day return of -0.2%, providing limited evidence that his timing selections have historically produced positive outcomes. Investors should monitor whether this cluster of March buys represents conviction at current depressed valuations or simply reflects ongoing management portfolio activity during a weak period.

Thomas J Herzfeld executed 2 separate purchases totaling 5,036 shares for $77,769.33, increasing his holdings by 2.7% from 185,628 to 190,664 shares.

The stock has experienced significant pressure, trading -40.0% over the 90-day period and -18.1% over the past 30 days, currently -43.0% from its 52-week high of $27.60. However, Herzfeld's track record across all tickers shows limited predictive value: his 17 prior open-market buys averaged -1.3% return over 30 days and -0.2% over 90 days, with just a 35.29% 90-day win rate, suggesting his purchase decisions have historically underperformed.

Ryan M Paylor made 2 separate purchases totaling 152 shares for $2,347.73, increasing his holdings from 5,929 to 6,081 shares (+2.6%). The purchases occurred on 2026-03-02 and 2026-03-03 at an average price of $15.45, while the current price is $15.72 (about 1.7% above the blended transaction price). The stock is trading at -43.0% from its 52-week high of $27.60 and has declined 40.0% over the past 90 days. Paylor's cross-ticker track record shows 3 prior buys with an average 90-day return of -0.5% and a 90-day win rate of 66.67%, indicating mixed historical outcomes from similar open-market purchase activity. The combination of modest dollar size ($2.3K), small incremental increase in holdings, substantial recent price depreciation, and Paylor's own prior buy patterns producing near-flat 90-day returns contextualizes this as a routine acquisition with no obvious signal of elevated conviction or differentiated forward guidance.
