Tuesday's Insider Report: Director invests in 2025's top-performing Big 6 Canadian bank stock
The list features insider transaction activity; it does not convey total ownership information as an insider may hold numerous accounts.
Keep in mind, when looking at transaction activities by insiders, purchasing activity may reflect perceived value in a security. Selling activity may or may not be related to a stock's valuation; perhaps an insider needs to raise money for personal reasons. An insider's total holdings should be considered because a sale may, in context, be insignificant if this person has a large remaining position in the company. I tend to put great weight on insider transaction activity when I see multiple insiders trading a company's shares or units.
Listed below is a bank stock that has had recent buying activity in the public market reported by an insider.
Toronto-Dominion Bank (TD-T)
On May 28, director Ana Arsov invested over $283,000 in shares of TD Bank. She acquired 3,000 shares at a cost per share of $94.49, increasing the holdings in this particular account to 6,483 shares.

Chinese surveillance camera maker Hikvision appeals order to leave Canada
OTTAWA — A Chinese maker of surveillance camera systems is appealing a federal government directive ordering it to shutter its Canadian operations due to national security concerns. Article content Hikvision said in a media statement it is asking for judicial review of a June 27 federal government order stating that the company must close down its Canadian operations. Article content Article content It's also asking the Federal Court to put the shutdown order on hold until the court decides on the judicial review. Article content Article content The federal government made its decision following a national security review under the Investment Canada Act. Article content Article content 'Since entering the Canadian market, we have followed all applicable laws and regulations, and will continue to defend our position that Hikvision products and technology have not endangered the national security of Canada or any other country in which we operate,' the company said in its statement. Article content 'We expect the legitimate rights and interests of all investors and businesses operating in the country to be fully respected and protected by its judicial system.' Article content Hikvision said it will continue operating normally for the time being, following an 'agreement' with the attorney general. Article content The company describes itself as the world's largest manufacturer of surveillance equipment. It has had a Canadian subsidiary since 2014. Article content Following the June 27 order, Industry Minister Melanie Joly said in an online post that the government looked at information and evidence provided by Canada's security and intelligence community. Article content Article content Hikvision has also faced sanctions in the U.S., Australia and the U.K. Article content Article content Some of those sanctions are due to claims that Hikvision supplied China with surveillance cameras used in the Xinjiang region, where the Uyghur population has faced human rights abuses. Article content The three companies did not immediately respond to questions from The Canadian Press about whether they still sell Hikvision products. Article content China has taken aim at Canada over the shutdown directive. Article content 'This seriously undermines the legitimate rights and interests of Chinese enterprises and disrupts and hurts the normal economic and trade cooperation between China and Canada. China strongly deplores and firmly opposes this,' a Chinese embassy spokesperson said in a June 28 statement. Article content The statement urged Canada to 'change course immediately, stop abusing national security and politicizing economic and trade issues.' Article content
