Signal,
not noise.

We read every Form 4 and 13F the moment it’s filed. Only high-conviction moves become news.

Insider trades

Open-market, direct trades of $500K or more — plus clusters and repeat buyers. Awards, options, gifts and tax withholding never reach the feed.

Institutional moves

New positions, full exits, changes of 20% or more and stakes above 0.5% of shares. Routine rebalancing stays out.
