Teck Resources stock dropped 5.55 per cent on Feb. 13 after fourth-quarter results. Investors were likely disappointed with quarterly earnings of $433-million, down from $740-million a year earlier. However, management highlighted 2018 record annual performance for revenue, EBITDA and profit.
A pair of insiders saw the dip as a buying opportunity, spending a combined $2.23-million buying shares on Feb. 28.
Meanwhile, Teck has bought back more than $136-million worth of its own shares over the past 90 days (not on chart).
