Director Moore Thomas Jack bought 3,080 shares of STEW at $16.23 on 2025-04-10 for $49,976.70; mixed track record with 50% 90d win rate on cross-ticker buys.

Director Moore Thomas Jack initiated a position in SRH Total Return Fund, Inc. (STEW) by purchasing 3,080 shares at $16.23 on 2025-04-10, totaling $49,976.70. This represents his first new stake in STEW following two prior trades at this ticker: a May 2024 buy that declined 99.9% over 90 days, and a November 2023 buy that returned +8.8% at the 90-day mark—a mixed pattern with only 50% of same-ticker buys being well-timed. His cross-ticker buy track record shows 2 prior purchases with an average 90-day return of -45.5% and a 50% win rate, indicating a pattern of inconsistent timing accuracy. The current share price of $16.52 sits -4.7% from the 52-week high and +2.6% above the 30-day average, placing the purchase neither at an extreme discount nor a clear inflection point. The absence of 10b5-1 plan disclosure and the discretionary timing of this purchase suggest it warrants tracking as part of ongoing assessment of this director's trade execution at this particular security.
