  • This marks the first insider buy at the company since January, when a cluster of insiders, including the CEO and CFO, bought shares. Since then, a major holder has been a repeated seller of shares, as well as the company COO.

    Overall, Archer insiders own 26 percent of shares.

    The electric aviation vehicle producer is down 14 percent over the past year and trades down over 80 percent from its peak.

    The early stage company is not yet profitable, but is starting to produce its vertical-take-off electric aircraft. Someday, these vehicles could create a fleet of air taxis. Plus, Archer has over $440 million in cash on the balance sheet, which should allow it to avoid issuing more stock or going into debt anytime soon.

  • Special: $1,300 into $45,000 in just 4 MONTHS?!
  • Action to take: Shares are still speculative here, but the stock is well off its lows and Archer is building partnerships, and stands a reasonable chance of succeeding. That could make for a speculative long-term buy here.

    For traders, shares are in an uptrend, but have pulled back in recent weeks. The October $5 calls, last going for about $0.25, could see high double-digit returns on a pop higher in shares in the coming months.
