Danaher Insider Trading Activities

Some recent studies suggest that insider trading raises the cost of capital for securities issuers and decreases overall economic growth. Trading by specific Danaher insiders, such as employees or executives, is commonly permitted as long as it does not rely on Danaher's material information that is not in the public domain. Local jurisdictions usually require such trading to be reported in order to monitor insider transactions. In many U.S. states, trading conducted by corporate officers, key employees, directors, or significant shareholders must be reported to the regulator or publicly disclosed, usually within a few business days of the trade.

The correlation of Danaher is a statistical measure of how it moves in relation to other instruments. This measure is expressed in what is known as the correlation coefficient, which ranges between -1 and +1. A perfect positive correlation (i.e., a correlation coefficient of +1) implies that as Danaher moves, either up or down, the other security will move in the same direction. Alternatively, perfect negative correlation means that if Danaher moves in either direction, the perfectly negatively correlated security will move in the opposite direction.
