Whilst it may not be a huge deal, we thought it was good to see that the Universal Stainless & Alloy Products, Inc. (NASDAQ:USAP) Chairman, Dennis Oates, recently bought US$75k worth of stock, for US$9.15 per share. However, it only increased their shares held by 7.3%, and it wasn't a huge purchase by absolute value, either.

That means that an insider was happy to buy shares at around the current price of US$9.17. Folks I'm going to take a stab at USAP here**** STAY TUNED.
