Jiang Wei Buy
500 shares
$144,730
@ $289.46
Significance 5/10

Jiang Wei (Director) purchased 500 shares of WAT at $289.46 on 2026-03-16, increasing holdings to 3,441 shares (+17.0%).

Director Jiang Wei purchased 500 shares at $289.46, bringing total holdings to 3,441 shares—a 17.0% increase in his position. The purchase occurred while WAT's stock has declined 28.5% from its 52-week high of $412.54 and dropped 8.8% over the prior 30 days, suggesting the buy occurred in a period of near-term weakness. Waters Corp maintains solid fundamentals with $799.9M in latest-quarter revenue, $148.9M in net income, and 7.0% annual revenue growth, though the P/E of 44.30 reflects a premium valuation. The transaction provides a discrete data point on insider appetite at current levels but does not by itself establish a directional signal about near-term or strategic conviction.
