Mercury General Corp scored higher than 67% of companies evaluated by InsiderBuying, and ranked 67th out of 227 stocks in the financials sector.

Scores are percentile-ranked against every company we scored that day, with extra weight given to the size and conviction of each purchase and the seniority of the buyer.

Dollars Committed

Insiders at Mercury General Corp bought $62.0K of stock across 1 purchase in the last 90 days, the largest of them $62.0K.

Stake Increase

The average purchase added about 23% to the buyer's existing holding. Doubling a stake earns full marks here; topping up an already large position earns very little.

Every buyer already held stock, so each purchase is an increase rather than a first position.

This category carries 35% of the Insider Score.
