Edward J. Smith is CEO & President at SMTC CORP (SMTX). They have made 18 open-market trades across 5 companies since 2006, most recently 2026-07-08.
Unrated. We grade insiders only on stock they chose to buy on the open market. Grants, option exercises and vesting say nothing about timing, so they don't count — which is why someone can file often and still have no grade. It isn't a bad sign: unrated buys beat every graded tier below A.
17 open-market purchases totalling $742K since 2006, against 1 sale. Across 16 scored buys the stock is up 9.2% at ninety days, and 5.7 points ahead of the S&P over the same stretch.
