In a market environment where major U.S. indices have recently faced downturns amid concerns over economic health and high-profile tech stock declines, investors are increasingly looking for resilient opportunities. One promising avenue is growth companies with high insider ownership, which often signals confidence from those closest to the business and can be particularly compelling when these firms are also demonstrating strong revenue growth.
