Two insiders bought $1,195,895 of Ecolab on the open market in the last four months, and unlike most of tonight's gate this is a business worth buying into: revenue +10% over the last year, 21% earned on the capital in the business, $3.7bn of net cash, no accounting flags, and a multiple that is cheapening, price +6% over 12m against revenue +10% with the multiple down 3%, leaving it at the 58th percentile of its own 5 year range against a median of 23.0. The strongest fact against it is that the engine reads STALLING and gross margin is down 0.7 points year on year, so the insiders are buying a steady compounder, not an inflection. The compressed coil sits 0.3% below its 282.74 trigger with invalidation at 267.46, 5.1% of risk; I sell if it loses that level or if the same insiders turn seller.
