Context
- This is an institutional 10% holder making very small open‑market purchases; such minimal buys (2 shares) are negligible relative to HKAM’s reported position and often reflect minor account activity rather than a meaningful change in conviction. For retail investors, larger or repeatedly increasing insider purchases are usually more informative than single-share trades.
