89 further Form 4 entries are share awards, option exercises or shares withheld for tax. Those are compensation, not trades, so they are excluded above. Buying is the stronger signal: an insider spends their own money for one reason. Selling has many innocent explanations — tax, diversifying, a house — so it says far less than it appears to. Via SEC filings.

Valuation

Project earnings forward and see what return today's price implies.

Seeded from PPC's reported EPS growth of 143.4% a year over 4 years. Historical EPS growth of 143% reflects a recovery from a low base and won't persist. Capped at 30% as a starting point.

EPS in 5 years
$16.93
Implied price
$152.34
Return from $27.56
40.8% a year

To earn 15.0% a year on these assumptions you'd need to buy at $75.74 — today's price is already 63.6% below that.

How sensitive is that answer?

Annual return across nearby assumptions. If the result is only attractive in one corner, that is the finding.

This is arithmetic on assumptions you chose, not a forecast or a recommendation. It ignores dividends, buybacks, share issuance and debt, and it assumes a company still earning money in 5 years. Change any input and the answer changes a lot — that sensitivity is the honest result, not a flaw in the model.
