Lanzhou Bank Directors, Executives Raise Stake to 2.99M Shares

Insider buying at a regional bank is typically read as a confidence signal, but the scale here is modest — a fraction of a percent of share capital — so it says more about internal sentiment than about the bank's fundamentals. The disclosure that the plan is only past its halfway point makes the remaining purchases the real signal to track. Whether participation broadens across the manager ranks, and whether buying continues near the upper end of the disclosed price range, is the open question.
